M.D,U.P.STATE AGRO-INDUSTRIAL CORPN.LTD. vs MAHENDRA KUMAR MISHRA

[2004] 4 SCC 113. The Court held that the reinstatement and payment of back-wages were in accordance with the High Court's directive, and noted that this judgment should not be treated as a precedent for similar cases. The outcome affirmed the High Court's decision without costs.
