Case Summary: Girja Shankar v. Chairman, Indian Council of Historical Research Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed Girja Shankar's appeal on 19 February 2001, setting aside the High Court of Allahabad's dismissal order. The Court found the High Court had incorrectly assumed the appellant's extension request dated March 4, 1995 was not granted, when evidence (Annexure-P5) showed the 83rd RPC had approved revalidation on January 2, 1996. Direction: The impugned writ petition was restored to the High Court's file for fresh decision and disposal in accordance with law. No costs were awarded.
