Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the Notification dated 26th July, 2004 under Section 10(1) of the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, prohibiting the employment of contract labor for trolley retrieval at the Airport Authority of India, does not automatically apply to the Delhi International Airport Private Limited (DIAL) following its establishment. The Court held that since DIAL is a new entity, a new notification from the appropriate government is required for the prohibition to be applicable. The appeals were decided in favor of DIAL and the Union of India, affirming the High Court's decision.
