HC rejects sacked TNSTC staff's zodiac argument
The New Indian Express Chennai
|May 04, 2025
THE Madras High Court has dismissed a petition filed by a Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (TNSTC) staff member, who was dismissed from service for unauthorised absence due to inimical astrological predictions about a "likely accident" during the course of "Gurupeyarchi" — realignment of zodiac signs.

The court also upheld the order of the Labour Court that endorsed the decision of the TNSTC to sack the staff member.
The petitioner, A Senthamaraikannan of Athur in Salem district, was appointed as conductor with the TNSTC, Salem division, in 1993. He went absent without leave for a certain period in 2013-14. After completing due procedures, the management dismissed him from service for unauthorised absence, on March 27, 2015.
