Dear Mr.Venkata Krishna,
It may not be nice to field certain types of counter-questions as a reply. However, the antecedents described in the question may, at times, compel the respondent to pose such counter questions in order to answer the questioner rather than the mere question. The elaborate details furnished by you subsequently give me an impression that you are in some way or other connected with the issue. Also, your drafts indicate that you are a knowledgeable person who need not be briefed about the consequences of violating the basic provisions of an important Law like the Factories Act,1948. Therefore, it would not be out of context to ask you as how you are interested in this issue - as a manufacturer who was denied plan approval and licence under the Act or a worker employed in that facility or a trade union leader representing the workers employed therein or a social activist skeptical about the hazards in the manufacturing process?
Coming to the question of non-grant of licence to the premises in spite of submission of applications right from 1994 to 2017. Please, ensure whether the application for approval of plan, permission for construction and requiring registration and grant of licence as per Sec.6(1) of the Factories Act,1948 r.w the relevant State Rules was sent by registered post and was rejected by the concerned authority.
If no order was communicated by the concerned authority within three months from the date it was received, Sec.6(2) of the Act provides for what is called as "automatic approval " or deemed approval in which case you can not be proceeded u/s 92 of the Act for penal action. Why didn't the owner/occupier move the High Court of the State for giving direction to the authority so far?
It is also important whether you have got clearances from the Pollution Control Board and Local Body for using the particular premises for the manufacture of the above batteries whose toxic effluents require safe disposal.
