Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the respondent No.3 is a State and thus amenable to the writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution. The Court set aside the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition on the grounds of non-amenability, allowing the appeal and remitting the case for a fresh decision on merits. The Court requested the High Court to expedite the matter due to some appellants no longer being in service.
