Union Of India & Anr vs Indulal Joshi

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in granting pay protection to the respondent in Group 'C' posts, as the scheme formulated in 1993 only provided for temporary status in Group 'D' cadre posts. The Court clarified that there was no provision for Group 'C' posts under the scheme. Consequently, the order of the High Court was set aside, and the appeal was allowed without costs.
