Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the first respondent's lien in the Irrigation Department, emphasizing that the lien was not terminated despite the winding up of the Bihar State Water Development Corporation. The Court noted that the first respondent was still entitled to be repatriated to his parent department as there was no evidence of termination of his lien or confirmation in the corporation. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling without costs.
