Report No. 60
3.28. Case-law as to the "District Judge".-
The contrary view has, however, been taken in an Assam case,1 holding that "District Judge" in section 7(3)(b) of the Industrial Disputes Act includes an Additional District Judge by virtue of this clause.2
Of course, the definition of the term "District Judge" cannot be used for finding out the meaning of the term "District court."3 But, where the term "district judge" is used, difficulty is created by the conflict of views referred to above.
