Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Industrial Tribunal which set aside the termination of the respondent, a temporary caretaker employed by the Life Insurance Corporation of India. The court found that the termination was not justified under the applicable regulations. However, it ruled that the reinstatement would be without back wages, balancing the interests of both parties.
