Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the Leave Fare Assistance Scheme (LFA) for employees, specifically examining the modifications made through various official memoranda from 1977 to 1982. The Court held that the appellant's rejection of the respondent's claim for LFA encashment for the block year 1982-85 was justified, as the scheme's provisions were clear regarding eligibility and entitlements. The Court emphasized that the modifications to the scheme were lawful and did not constitute discrimination against the respondent, thereby upholding the decision of the appellant.
