Dear Daizzy,
I am not sure what exactly you mean by Government/ Semi-Govt organization with reference to the applicability of Labor Laws.
Any activity analogous to industry undertaken by the Government be it Central or State or in partnership with private sector would be an activity to which all the Labor Laws would be equally applicable subject to exemptions, if any specifically provided in the respective law.
In fact, in certain land mark judgments on labor issues pertaining to public sector undertakings, the Supreme Court of India categorically laid down that the State shall strive to be a model employer.
Therefore, all Labor Laws are applicable to all undertakings of the Central/ State Governments like Govt. Corporations, Boards, Companies etc.
