Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court affirming the First Appellate Court's order to regularize the plaintiffs as tractor drivers, despite their initial appointment as Malis. The Court emphasized that the plaintiffs had been performing the duties of tractor drivers for an extended period, and the employer's failure to create the post of tractor driver was unjustified. The Court held that the denial of regularization was a violation of the plaintiffs' rights, thereby reinforcing the principle that employees should not be denied rightful positions based on technicalities.
