Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's directive for the regularization of daily-wage Group-D employees in the Government Press under the U.P. Group-D Employees Service Rules, 1985. The Court emphasized the need for the Director of Government Press to consider the regularization as per the rules promulgated in December 2001, affirming the government's earlier decision to provide age relaxation for qualified candidates. The judgment reinforces the principle that long-term daily-wage employees should be given opportunities for regular employment in accordance with established rules.
