UNION OF INDIA AND ORS. ETC. vs TEJRAM PARASHRAMJI BOMBHATE AND ORS. ETC.

The Supreme Court held that the Central Administrative Tribunal lacks jurisdiction to compel the Central Government to create posts for a Secondary School not sanctioned by the Government, as per Section 14 of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985. The Court found no evidence of a master-servant relationship between the Central Government and the teachers, who were employed locally and paid from school fees. The Tribunal's directions were deemed unjustified and without legal authority, leading to the appeal being allowed and the Tribunal's order set aside.
