Union Of India vs Sudhir Kumar Jaiswal on 4 May, 1994
11. The final submission in this regard was that the cut-off date
"15.5.1987" is arbitrary. This also is not correct because the memorandum
had come to be issued following many deliberations and discussions with
different unions of which mention has been in detdil in one of the
documents on record. So, it cannot be said that the date (15.5.1987) is one
'picked out from a hat', in which case a cut-off date would be arbitrary,
as stated by this Court recently in para 4 of Union of India v. Sudhir
Kumar Jaiswal 1994 II CLR 1. We are rather satisfied that the date has
relevance and the memorandum has come to be issued following the aforesaid
discussion. So, we uphold the validity of the memorandum.Appeals @ SLP(C)
