Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the termination of an agency under the Mahila Pradhan Kshetriya Bachat Yojana, emphasizing that mere familial relations do not justify termination without clear evidence of policy breach. The Court found the High Court's reversal of the single judge's decision incorrect but chose not to disturb the respondent's appointment due to the lack of established breach of government instructions. The appeal was disposed of without costs.
