Allahabad HC Dismissed the Plea Alleging Judges Use Court Staff as Domestic Servants

The Allahabad High Court dismissed a petition by Anjuman Himayat Chaprasian Sangh UP, which alleged that class IV employees in Uttar Pradesh's district courts were being forced to work as domestic servants for judicial officers.

The Court found the Petition not maintainable, as the association's bylaws did not authorize legal proceedings on behalf of its members. 

The Court also noted that the employees assist judicial officers by transporting files and materials, which cannot be considered forced labour. 

The petitioners were advised to raise individual grievances, as the association lacked the authority to file the writ petition.
