Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of regularization of ad-hoc employees under the Uttar Pradesh Regularization of Services of Ad-hoc Employees Act, 2014. The Court held that the orders of regularization issued by the District Judge were valid and could not be declared non-est by a successor. It emphasized that the principles of natural justice must be adhered to in employment matters, particularly when employees have served for an extended period. The Court ultimately set aside the High Court's dismissal of the appellants' writ petitions and reinstated their regularization, ensuring their rights were protected under the law.
