Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the jurisdiction of civil courts in relation to termination orders issued by the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation, referencing Section 4 of the Road Transport Corporations Act, 1950 and Section 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that civil courts have jurisdiction to entertain suits challenging termination orders if they are in violation of natural justice principles. The judgment resolves a conflict between prior decisions, affirming the right of employees to seek redress in civil courts against unlawful termination.
