Shripal vs Nagar Nigam, Ghaziabad on 12 September, 2023
13. As we have observed in both Jaggo (Supra) and Shripal (Supra),
outsourcing cannot become a convenient shield to perpetuate
precariousness and to sidestep fair engagement practices where the
work is inherently perennial. The Commission's further contention
that the appellants are not "full-time" employees but continue only by
virtue of interim orders also does not advance their case. That interim
protection was granted precisely because of the long history of
engagement and the pendency of the challenge to the State's
refusals.
