    The High Court of Orissa allowed the petitioner Dhuleswar Das's writ petition and directed the Union of India to regularize his employment as a Technical Helper from his initial engagement date (26.11.1994), along with all service and financial benefits, within eight weeks. The court found his irregular appointment entitled him to regularization as a one-time measure based on decades of continuous service and Supreme Court precedent in Jaggo v. Union of India.
