This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and having perused the record, we find no good ground to offer any interference in the order of the learned single judge dated 25.08.2026 in Pooja Gupta & Anr. Vs. State of U.P. & 3 Ors.; 2026:AHC:179298.
2. Undeniably, the original petitioners were contractual workers. They were disengaged on 04.09.2024. The writ petition was filed after two years. Besides being hit by laches, the learned single judge has also reasoned that the engagement being contractual, the original petitioners may not have earned a right to be in continued in engagement.
3. In view of the above, the present intra-Court appeal lacks merit and is accordingly dismissed.
