Ram Nayak vs U.P. State Sugar Corporation

The Supreme Court held that the appellant's termination from service was subject to the provisions of the U.P. Sugar Undertaking Acquisition Act, 1971, specifically Sections 10 and 16(3). The Court found that a determination of whether the appellant was employed on the 'appointed day' was necessary and directed him to approach the prescribed authority for this finding. The outcome was that the High Court's order setting aside the Labour Court's award was not upheld, pending the prescribed authority's determination.
