Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the Orissa Administrative Tribunal's direction to appoint the respondent in future vacancies was invalid as the appointment was for a non-sanctioned post and the respondent was not qualified for the position. The Court referenced the Government's letter stating that Hindi teachers in M.E. Schools were to be adjusted only if they possessed the necessary qualifications. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, overturning the Tribunal's order.
