Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Labour Court to reinstate Kalawati Pandurang Fulzele, who was terminated from her position as a sweeper by the Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation. The court found that the High Court had erred in dismissing the appeal and confirmed that the termination was unjustified, thereby restoring the Labour Court's award for reinstatement with back wages. This judgment emphasizes the importance of fair labor practices and the protection of workers' rights.
