Our registered Trade union’s Term is over on 19.01.2022 (1 year period). To date union bearer had not announced for the Union election. What is the medium from we can do further to get the election?
Is there any provision to extend election while arranging AGM - Annual General Meeting? If the Total present in AGM is less than the actual strength then it is possible to extend the election date.
What is the final way to get a union election if extension gets through AGM where the presence of employee is not having majority than actual strength?
Please guide.

Please see the State Rules under the Trade Union Act of 1926. It appears that you are from Gujarat, so please refer to the Gujarat Rules. There is a provision for the Trade Union Registrar to intervene. You must formally bring the issue to the attention of the Trade Union Registrar by filing a complaint about the failure to hold Union elections.
I assume that you are a follower of Trade Unions. If you are from the management side, please refrain from directly involving yourself in the Union election process. The approach to addressing this issue should be discussed with more detailed information.

Dear Colleague,
As rightly pointed out by our colleague in the reply, what is important is the deeper, detailed check by you on the Trade Unions Act 1926 and the rules made thereunder. The answer to your specific questions will not be found in the Act and rules but in the bylaws of the Trade Union. Normally, most Union Elections occur once every three years, but this is purely based on how the timespan is defined under the bylaws of the Union. Therefore, please thoroughly read the Trade Union Bylaws to clarify your points.
Thank you.

It is not clear which side you are from. It is better to keep silent if you are from the management side, as suggested by seniors, unless you or management have any particular interest. AGM, etc., are as per the bylaws of the union. As far as the election process is concerned, you may look into the Code of Discipline if the union is affiliated with national unions.
