ELECTRICITY EMPLOYMENT UNION vs UNION OF INDIA AND OTHERS

The Supreme Court upheld the Central Administrative Tribunal's decision dismissing the appeals of the Electricity Employment Union and others regarding their service allotment post the Punjab Reorganization Act, 1966. The Court interpreted Section 67 of the Act, confirming that the appellants' services were allotted to the newly constituted Punjab State Electricity Board and not to the Union Territory of Chandigarh. The Court ruled that the appellants were working on deputation under the Board, thus affirming the Tribunal's findings.
