casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Ram Ganesh Tripathi v. State of U.P. The Supreme Court allowed the appeal, holding that the U.P. Government repeatedly abused its powers to favor ad hoc appointees over direct recruits in violation of statutory service rules. The Court quashed the Government's order backdating ad hoc employees' seniority to 1974 and directed proper seniority determination based on actual regularization date (17.5.85), with direct recruits ranking senior. The Government was ordered to reconsider selection grade eligibility within two months. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
