As
Critic
The Trade Unions Act, 1926, permits outsiders to be the office bearers of a union to the extent of half the total number of office bearers. It permits one to be the leader of the union who does not actually work in the industry. Sometimes a dismissed employee working as a union leader may create difficulties in the relationship between the union and the employer. Accordingly employees refuse recognition to the unions which are either controlled by the politicians or affiliated to a particular political party or controlled by a particular individual. Government cannot morally compel employers to accord recognition to unions without driving out the politicians from them. 4/21/12 The State must outright ban "outsiders" from the trade
Politicization of TradeUnion Movement in India It is well known that the trade-union movement in India is divided
Most of the trade-union organizations have aligned themselves with a political party with whom they find themselves philosophically close.

State,
Recognition of trade union has to be determined through verification of fee membership method. The union having more membership should be recognized as the effective bargaining agent. The State should enact suitable legislation providing for compulsory recognition of trade union by employers. Section 22 of the Trade Unions Act, 1926 should be amended. The provision for political fund by trade unions has to be done away with-since it unvariably encourages the politicians to prey upon the union. State has to play a progressive role in removing the pitfalls which stand in the way of mutual, amicable and voluntary 4/21/12 settlement of labor disputes.
