Abhinav, you should ask the Union to wait till the present settlement is in force. Even if the Union issues a notice of termination of the settlement following section 19(6) you will get two months time. An organisation cannot work according to the directions of the trade union alone. If the union had objection they should have raised it when you had signed settlement. Now after having signed the settlement they cannot say that the settlement should be made in the presence of Labour officer.
