The Bench comprising Chief Justice S. Manikumar and Justice Shaji P. Chali passed the verdict while allowing a public interest litigation filed by G. Balagopalan, former Director, Police Fingerprint Bureau, State Crime Records Bureau (SCRB), Thiruvananthapuram, challenging the government order. He contended that allowing the employees who took part in the strike to take leave was illegal and an abuse of power.
