Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Administrative Tribunal regarding the termination of the petitioner's service as a Medical Officer, emphasizing that the petitioner had no right to the post since he was appointed on an ad hoc basis. The Court clarified that the appointment of a duly selected candidate, even by transfer, necessitates the termination of the temporary employee's service without notice. The Court dismissed the special leave petitions, affirming the Tribunal's order that the petitioner must vacate the position upon the appointment of a selected candidate.
