After filing the petition, the Labor Court found that the work of the contract employees who have been regularized and the work of those who have not been regularized are of similar nature and are perennial, hence some people were regularized.

 Or they should be merged on the regular posts lying vacant in the departments. After the decision of the Supreme Court, now there is no doubt that the contract employees in Madhya Pradesh were being exploited by saying that you are a temporary employee, you are working for the project. If you are an employee, you are a contract employee, therefore, following the decision of the Supreme Court, contract employees should be regularized and they should be given the benefits of all salaries and allowances from the date they are working.
