#temporary employee termination

The Gauhati High Court ruled that a temporary constable who suffers a training-related injury is a member of the CRPF for purposes of rehabilitation and disability pension, overturning his termination. This clarifies that temporary service employees are entitled to pension benefits when permanently incapacitated.

Chhattisgarh High Court rules that terminating a temporary employee on suspicion of misconduct without a fair inquiry violates principles of natural justice, even for contingency-paid staff. The court ordered reinstatement with service benefits, reinforcing that procedural fairness applies regardless of employment status.
