Daulat Singh & Ors vs The Railway Emp.Cooperative Banking ...

The Supreme Court held that the termination of the appellants' services was illegal under Section 28-A of the Rajasthan Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, 1958, which mandates that no employee with continuous service of six months can be dismissed without reasonable cause and prior notice. The Court found that the Division Bench of the High Court erred in concluding that there was a break in service, as the appellants had been continuously employed for the requisite period. Consequently, the Court reinstated the employees with all consequential reliefs, overturning the High Court's decision.
