Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court affirming the Labour Court's award, which found that the appellant failed to prove his employment with the respondent, as he did not provide evidence of continuous work for 240 days or any engagement letter. The Court emphasized that the appellant was employed through a contractor and was paid on a daily wage basis, thus ruling that his termination was not illegal. The appeal was dismissed with no order as to costs.
