Rajni vs Rama Sewa Samiti (Regd.) & Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that reinstatement of services was not warranted as the appellant's employment terms were not governed by any statute or statutory rules, referencing Section 14(1)(b) of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court reiterated the principle established in Executive Committee of Vaish Degree College, Shamli and Ors. Vs. Lakshmi Narain and Ors. - AIR 1976 (SC) 888, emphasizing that a non-statutory code cannot confer rights for reinstatement. The appeal was dismissed, with the High Court's award of Rs.20,000/- in damages remaining intact.
