ASOM RASHTRABHASHA PRACHAR SAMITI-A SOCIETYREGISTERED UNDER vs STATE OF ASSAM AND OTHERS

The Supreme Court declared the Assam Rashtrabhasha Prachar (Taking over Management and Control) Act, 1984, as ultra vires, specifically citing Section 3 of the Act. The Court held that the notification nominating a Board to replace the Karyapalika and Byabasthapika Sabha was invalid, as it violated the constitutionally protected rights of the registered body, Assam Rashtrabhasha Prachar Samiti. The judgment emphasized the importance of adhering to the established constitutional framework in managing educational institutions.
