casestatus.in Summary

Summary: W.P.(C) No. 658/2000 - Gurmeet Singh v. Union of India The Supreme Court disposed of this writ petition (heard with related cases on 13 January 2003) concerning railway employees who were appointed as casual workers in projects (1979-1981) and later regularized as khalasis in Group D. While rejecting the petitioners' claim to retain ad-hoc promotional positions in projects, the Court protected them against certain anomalies: if reposted to the same project, they retain comparable pay; trade tests already passed need not be retaken; and service length and test performance must be considered for open-line promotions. Further promotions to Group B remain governed by standard rules. Interim orders were vacated with no order on costs. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
