Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that daily wage workers under the Jawahar Rozgar Yojna do not have an inherent right to be absorbed as regular employees, as their employment was temporary and not linked to any regular posts created by the District Rural Development Agency (DRDA). The Court clarified that while the right to work and livelihood is recognized under Article 21 of the Constitution, it does not automatically confer a right to regularization of employment. The petitions for wage differences and absorption were dismissed, affirming the temporary nature of the employment under the scheme.
