ANIL KUMAR SONI vs M.D., PUNJAB FINANCIAL CORPORATION

The Supreme Court held that the termination of the appellant from the post of Assistant Manager was justified, but he was entitled to continue in his confirmed position as Assistant Technical Officer. The Court clarified that the Board's resolution implied that a confirmed employee's previous post could only be abolished upon confirmation in the new cadre, and not merely by selection. Thus, the appellant's right to his previous post was upheld, ensuring he was not unjustly dismissed after nine years of service.
