Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, invoking Article 142 of the Constitution of India, disposed of Civil Appeal No. 4484 of 2009 by directing the appellant to pay Rs. 1,00,000 to Respondent No. 4, thereby settling all claims. The Court emphasized the need for equity and complete justice in a dispute concerning the appointment of an Anganwadi worker between family members. The judgment of the High Court was modified to reflect this settlement, and the appellant was recognized as being in service for all purposes.
