Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of an employment notice issued by Nagpur University under the Nagpur University Act, 1974, specifically Sections 32, 57(4)(a), and 76. The Court held that the employment notice was invalid as it did not obtain necessary recommendations from the Board of University Teaching and Research, violating Section 32(2)(iii). Consequently, the Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the employment notice and the subsequent appointments, affirming that the terminations were lawful due to non-compliance with statutory requirements.
