Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Gauhati High Court which directed the conferment of temporary status to the respondent under the 1989 Scheme for casual labourers. The court confirmed that the respondent met the eligibility criteria of continuous service and days worked as stipulated in the scheme. The appeal by Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. was dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's order and the High Court's review dismissal.
