Sections 22 and 23 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 prohibit strikes and lock-outs during the pendency of conciliation proceedings and for a specific period thereafter. Section 22 (Prohibition of strikes and lock-outs in public utility services) and Section 23 (General prohibition of strikes and lock- outs) both contain provisions that prohibit strikes and lock-outs during the pendency of any conciliation proceedings before a conciliation officer or a Board and "seven days after the conclusion of any such proceedings". This means that after the conciliation proceedings have concluded (either by settlement, failure report submitted to the government, or reference to a tribunal), there is a cooling- off period of 7 days during which strikes and lock- outs are prohibited.
In an industrial establishment, no workman can go on strike and no employer can declare a lock-out within how many days of conclusion of conciliation proceedings?
