Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals of Home Guards from Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, and N.C.T of Delhi regarding their regularization in service. The Court held that the appellants, having served for 10 to 30 years, were not regular appointees but volunteers entitled only to duty allowances as per the relevant Acts and Rules. The Court dismissed the appeals, affirming the High Courts' decisions that denied regularization of their services under the applicable legal framework.
