Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the nature of the appointment of the respondent as Senior General Manager at GRIDCO, determining it was contractual rather than regular. The Court held that the termination of the respondent's services was valid under the terms of the contract, which allowed for termination with notice. The judgment of the High Court was set aside, affirming the legality of the termination under Article 226 of the Constitution.
