Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's dismissal of writ petitions filed by former Air India employees regarding pay stagnation, non-promotion, and wage revision arrears, citing violations of Articles 14, 16, and 21 of the Constitution. The Court ruled that the writ petitions were not maintainable due to the privatization of Air India, which occurred after the petitions were filed, thus affecting the High Court's jurisdiction under Article 226. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision while allowing the petitioners to seek remedies as per law.
