Punjab and Haryana High Court Orders Regularisation of Daily-Wage Employee from 2003
The Punjab and Haryana High Court ordered the Haryana State Agricultural Marketing Board to regularise a daily-wage employee's services from October 1, 2003, ruling that administrative inaction cannot deny accrued worker rights. The court granted related benefits and 12% interest from the date of accrual. The employee, Baljit Singh, had served as a road roller driver and later as a peon, fulfilling conditions under the 2003 regularisation policy. The court emphasized fairness and equality in employment decisions.
