SANDHYA vs STATE OF MAHARASHTRA .

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision denying the appellant's claim for regularization of service under the Government Resolution dated 10th March, 2005, stating that the appellant, having worked as an unpaid candidate since 1985, did not meet the eligibility criteria for regularization as outlined in the relevant government resolutions. The Court emphasized that the recruitment rules framed in 1961 and subsequent resolutions did not provide an automatic right to regularization for unpaid candidates. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling.
