Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to appoint the first respondent under the Evictee Scheme as a Catering Attendant 'A', despite the respondent's request for a higher Grade 'B' post due to her experience. The Court emphasized that the appointment should be made without further screening and noted that this judgment is based on the peculiar facts of the case, thus not serving as a precedent. The Court directed the appellants to utilize the respondent's services appropriately, irrespective of the category of her appointment.
