The Supreme Court examined a dispute regarding the termination of two workers of the Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Ltd. who were engaged on daily wages and whose services were terminated in 1979. The High Court had upheld an order directing the corporation to pay the workers a specified sum. The Court considered whether the termination was justified and whether the compensation awarded was appropriate, ultimately affirming the lower courts' decisions. The case highlights issues related to industrial disputes, termination, and compensation for daily wage workers.
