KRISHAN KUMAR vs HARYANA STATE AGRICULTURAL MKTG. BOARD

The Supreme Court upheld the termination of the appellant's appointment as Assistant Secretary of the Haryana State Agricultural Marketing Board, citing the Haryana State Agricultural Marketing Board Service Rules, 1974. The Court found that the appellant's experience in the Hissar National Cooperative House Building Society did not qualify as 'Semi-Government' experience as required by the rules, leading to the conclusion that his appointment was invalid. The Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the High Court's decision to not consider the appellant's case sympathetically due to his age and lack of qualifications for other appointments.
