J.A.S. INTER COLLEGE & ORS. vs STATE OF U.P. & ORS.

The Supreme Court directed the appointment of 18 teachers as required by the petitioners under the U.P. Secondary Education Services Commission and Selection Board Act, 1982. The Court clarified that the ad hoc appointments made by the petitioner-college would not confer any rights or equity, as per Section 18(3) of the Act, which states such appointments cease upon the joining of recommended candidates or after a specified period. The Court held that the ad hoc appointees would remain until the final disposal of the writ petition, subject to the outcome of the case.
