Director General,E.S.I.Corp.& Ors vs Bharati Banerjee & Ors

The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order regarding the appointment of the respondent in a Group-D post of the Employees' State Insurance Corporation, emphasizing the necessity of producing relevant records for compassionate appointments as mandated by the Tribunal. The Court found that the records of the appointments of respondent Nos. 5 and 6 were not initially produced, leading to an adverse decision. The case was remitted back to the High Court for a fresh decision, requiring a reasoned order after hearing all parties, with a directive to resolve the matter within three months.
