Mahadeo Bhau Khilare (Mane) & Ors vs State Of Maharashtra & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of the appointment of unpaid candidates in the Revenue Department under the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal's scheme. The Court held that the appellants, who had served as unpaid copiers, were not entitled to absorption under the scheme as they did not meet the eligibility criteria established by the Government Resolution dated 30.11.1995. The Court affirmed the Tribunal's finding that the work performed by the appellants was unauthorized, thus upholding the decision to exclude them from the scheme.
