Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order directing the Surplus Manpower Cell to consider the respondent's case for appointment as Assistant Motor Vehicle Inspector under the Administrative Tribunal Act, 1985. The Court noted that the respondent had undergone necessary training and was eligible for the position, despite the appellant's argument regarding the prohibition of corporation employees from government absorption under Act 14 of 1997. The appeal was rendered infructuous as the respondent's eligibility was recognized, and the High Court's directive was affirmed.
