Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of the Bihar Non-Government Secondary Schools (Taking over of Management and Control) Act, 1981, stating that it does not violate Article 30 of the Constitution. The Court found that while the Act allows the State to take over management for better organization of secondary education, it does not compel the takeover of minority schools, thus respecting their rights. The Court emphasized that the provisions aim to ensure academic excellence and proper management without infringing on the rights of minority institutions.
