Case History
Summary: State of Punjab v. Anjana (C.A. No. 5123/2001) On October 11, 2007, the Supreme Court dismissed the State of Punjab's appeal against Anjana's appointment. The Court upheld the High Court's finding that the State wrongfully denied her appointment due to lack of a post at the designated posting location (Srihargobindpur), which was the State's fault, not hers. However, regarding back wages, the Court reduced the full back wages awarded by lower courts to 50% from July 1990 until her reinstatement, considering she had not worked during that 17-year period, while acknowledging the State's responsibility for the delay.
