STATE OF U.P. . vs KRISHAN MADHO SHARMA . — C.A. No. 1043/2001

Case Summary: State of U.P. v. Krishan Madho Sharma Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the State of U.P.'s appeal on February 5, 2001, setting aside the High Court's orders and dismissing the writ petition. The Court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction in directing the State to employ 21 redundant Bar Association workers, as no master-servant relationship existed between the State and respondents. Background: When the Allahabad High Court took over printing of cause lists from the Bar Association, 21 employees became redundant. The High Court had ordered the State to provide similar employment, but the Supreme Court found this direction unwarranted since the workers were Bar Association employees, not government servants, and therefore had no claim on the State for employment.
