Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeals concerning the Modified Voluntary Retirement Scheme of 2002 for the workers of Azam Jahi Mills. The court examined the legality of the High Court's decision to quash the earlier judgment favoring the workers, ultimately ruling in favor of the National Textile Corporation and the Kakatiya Urban Development Authority. The court emphasized the need for adherence to the terms of the retirement scheme and the implications of the closure of the mill on the workers' rights.
