Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal of the appellant, a Junior Engineer whose services were terminated due to color blindness, under Article 142 of the Constitution of India. The Court directed that the appellant be accommodated in another position within the Respondent-Corporation that aligns with his qualifications, while ensuring his salary remains protected. The Court did not address the applicability of the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995 in this case.
