Certo Is this judgment real?
Beta, Supreme Court only. We check Supreme Court of India judgments only for now: a High Court citation reads "Not in our corpus", which never means it does not exist.

Learned from how other judgments cite this one, in their text or in the official Supreme Court Reports' lists of cases they refer to: each is cited this way by at least two judgments, and at least twice as often as any other citation to this judgment in that report. We hold no commercial reporter's text, only these citation strings.

Counted only in the Supreme Court judgments we hold whose text we could read, not in High Court judgments. We match each citation to a judgment automatically, so a citation we cannot match is not counted. "Cited" says only that a judgment refers to this one, not whether it followed, distinguished or overruled it.

p. 688, margin F

This appeal by special leave arises from the order of the High Court of Madhya Pradesh passed in Misc. Petition No. 2935 of 1986 on 9th February , 1995 and the order passed in Review Petition (MCC No. 461 of 1995) dated 12th July, 1996. On a Scheme sponsored by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, the appellant-institute had taken up the Project. As many as 625 posts were created in different scales. The respondents while working as Binders, Machine Operators & Class IV employees respectively in the regular pay-scales of Rs. 750-945, filed a writ petition in the High Court for regularisation of their service, By the impugned order, the High Court allowed the writ petition. Feeling aggrieved, the appellantinstitute has filed this appeal by special leave.

pp. 688–689, margin F

It is not in dispute that the Scheme is sponsored by Indian Council of Agricultural Research and, therefore, permanent posts cannot be created. The posts are co-terminus with the scheme. On abolition of the Scheme, posts also necessarily stand abolished. We are informed that the Scheme may continue to be in force; but it depends upon the Scheme being sponsored and the posts made available by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research. Therefore, the direction to regularise the services is violative of their right to posts. The order of the High Court to that extent is modified. On whatever posts the respondents are working and discharging their duty, the scale of pay of the said post is directed to be paid.

p. 689, margin A

The appeal is accordingly disposed of. No costs. T.N.A. Appeal disposed of.
