Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the claims of daily wage employees seeking regularization of their services based on the precedent set in Umadevi's case (2006) 4 SCC 1, specifically referring to paragraph 53. The Court held that the benefits of regularization under Umadevi apply only to those who were irregularly appointed in sanctioned posts, not to daily wage workers without formal appointments. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed as the appellants did not meet the criteria for regularization as outlined in the earlier judgment.
