Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the Review Petitions, stating that there was no substance in the grounds urged, as the parties had proceeded on the assumption that only general questions would be decided. The Court held that the judgment did not violate principles of natural justice, and the exercise of power under Article 310(1) can be done by authorities specified in the Act or rules. The dissenting opinion highlighted the need for a thorough examination of constitutional issues regarding the exercise of such powers and the rights of workers under the Constitution.
