Umadevi Not a Blanket Bar | Daily Rated Employees with 10+ Years Regular Selection Entitled to Regularization Consideration : Calcutta HC

Calcutta HC ruled Umadevi is no blanket bar to regularizing daily-rated employees with 10+ years service appointed through regular selection (employment exchange/interview). Authorities must consider regularization and, interim, pay 1/30th salary plus DA per the 1988 OM. The decision protects regularly selected long-term employees from casual labour classification.

Uma Devi Precedent | MP HC Mandates Regularization Consideration for Daily-Rated Employees with 10+ Years Service Despite Illegal Appointment : MP HC Gwalior

The Madhya Pradesh High Court directed the state to form a policy for regularizing daily-rated employees with over 10 years of service, even if their initial appointment was illegal. The court emphasized that continued employment for a decade or more creates a legitimate expectation, overriding the illegality of the initial appointment, in line with Supreme Court precedents like Uma Devi and Jaggo.
