Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the termination of the employee's services by the Central Bank of India, stating that her caste certificate was invalidated by the Scrutiny Committee under the guidelines issued by the Government of India. The Court emphasized that the employee did not contest the Scrutiny Committee's findings, which confirmed she did not belong to the 'Thakur Scheduled Tribe'. The Court ruled that the termination was justified as it was based on the invalidation of her caste claim, thus affirming the High Court's order to reinstate her without back-wages.
