Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined whether the Kerala government's decision to regularize temporary appointments of persons with disabilities under a 2013 government order was valid under existing service rules. The court analyzed the eligibility of the appellants, who had been engaged temporarily with disabilities exceeding 40%, for regularization. It held that such regularization was permissible under the applicable rules and that the government order was justified. The court upheld the decision to regularize the services of the disabled persons, emphasizing the importance of affirmative action for persons with disabilities.
