Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the regularization and pay scale of work-charge employees appointed by the Rajasthan State Electricity Board. The Court held that the respondents, who were initially appointed as Helpers, were entitled to the pay scale of Junior Clerk from 1st December 1979, as they performed the duties of that post. The Court affirmed the Industrial Tribunal's award, which directed the payment of wages for the Junior Clerk position from the specified date, thereby upholding the rights of the employees under the State (Appropriation of Appointments in Public Services and Staff Systematisation) Act, 1999.
