The Bombay High Court has held that even women working on temporary or daily-wage basis are entitled to maternity leave benefits. The Court ruled that denying maternity benefits due to short technical breaks in service is arbitrary and illegal.
The Bombay High Court condemned Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan’s Mumbadevi Adarsh Sanskrit Mahavidyalay for unfairly keeping Assistant Professor Reshu Singh on probation for nearly seven years. The Court mandated her confirmation as of June 20, 2020, and awarded her associated benefits, emphasizing the exploitation of teaching staff against institutional values.
