State Of Uttar Pradesh And Anr vs Kaushal Kishore Shukla on 11 January, 1991
22. It is a settled law that a temporary employee has not right
to hold the post as his services are liable to be terminated without
assigning any reason either in terms of the contract providing for such
termination or under the relevant statutory rules regulating the terms
and conditions of temporary servants. A similar question came up for
consideration in the case of 'RAVINDRA KUMAR MISRA vs U.P.
STATE HANDLOOM CORPORATION' AIR 1987 SC 2408; 'TRIVENI
SHANKAR SAXENA vs STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH AND OTHERS'
AIR 1992 SC 496; 'COMMISSIONER, FOOD AND CIVIL SUPPLIES,
LUCKNOW, U.P AND ANOTHER vs PRAKASH CHANDRA SAXENA
AND ANOTHER, (1994) 5 SCC 177; 'RAM CHANDRA TRIPATHI vs
U.P PUBLIC SERVICES TRIBUNAL IV AND OTHERS, (1994) 5 SCC
180 and 'MADHYA PRADESH HASTA SHILPA VIKAS NIGAM LTD vs
WP(C) No. 35 of 2015 Page 6 of 7
DEVENDRA KUMAR JAIN AND OTHERS' (1995) 1 SCC 638 and
'KAUSHAL KISHORE SHUKLA' (supra) and the Hon'ble Supreme
Court has categorically held that incumbent to a post who has been
given appointment on temporary basis, terminable without notice has
no right to hold the post and he is not entitled for any opportunity of
hearing before his services are dispensed with as his termination does
not amount to forfeiture of any legal right.
