Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the termination of Santosh Tukaram Tiware, ruling that the Zila Parishad's order was unjustified. The court emphasized the need for adherence to due process in employment matters, particularly when it involves the rights of contractual employees. Consequently, the Zila Parishad was directed to reinstate Tiware and grant him the benefits of a regular employee from the date of termination.
