SANTOSH KUMAR TRIPATHI vs U.P.POWER CORPORATION .

The Supreme Court held that the exemption from appearing in written examinations for apprentices, as established in U. P. State Road Transport Corporation vs. U. P. Parivahan Nigam Shikshuk Berojgar Sangh, is not universally applicable to all apprentices but only to those specifically involved in that case. The Court upheld the decision of the Allahabad High Court, affirming that the appellants, who sought absorption as Junior Engineers based on their apprenticeship, were not entitled to the same exemption. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, reinforcing the need for adherence to the specific terms of the earlier judgment.
