ARJUN PRASAD vs STATE OF BIHAR — C.A. No. 3616/2000

Summary: In Civil Appeal No. 3616/2000 (Arjun Prasad v. State of Bihar), heard on 22 January 2002, the Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, upholding the High Court's direction that a fresh gradation list be prepared applying the principles of the Government Resolution dated 30 March 1981, rather than the retrospectively-applied Joint Cadre Rules 1992, to protect vested seniority rights of employees appointed on temporary/ad-hoc basis. W.P. 591/2001 and C.A. 6898/2000 were dismissed as withdrawn. C.A. 3617/2000 had arguments concluded with judgment reserved.
