What did the court decide?
In the absence of any sanctioned cadre post of pump attendant prior to 31.03.1993 (except one such post in District Rohtak), there was no occasion for engagement of any person as Water Pump Attendant, and any engagement would in all likelihood have been made only as an operator.
