Mahboob Deepak vs Nagar Panchayat Gajraula & Anr

The Supreme Court held that the termination of the appellant's services as a daily wager was not in compliance with Section 6N of the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, which mandates adherence to statutory requirements for retrenchment after 240 days of work. The Court found that the High Court erred in setting aside the Labour Court's award, which had deemed the termination illegal, but clarified that reinstatement is not automatic and must consider compliance with statutory rules. The Court ultimately upheld the High Court's decision regarding the lack of a right to the post for daily wagers, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
