Judgment text excerpt
The case concerns the eligibility of daily-wage workers for absorption into a work-charged establishment based on a Board circular requiring 500 days of service. The primary legal issue was whether a worker must be actively in service on the date of the circular's issuance to qualify for absorption. The court analyzed whether the circular stipulated active service as a prerequisite beyond the completion of the required service days.
