ABDUL HAMEED, FAZLI vs ADAM MALIK KHAN

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the selection process for a permanent lecturer position at Aligarh Muslim University, specifically examining the adherence to Section 29(2)(a) of the Aligarh Muslim University Act. The Court upheld the High Court's ruling that the Executive Committee's actions in preparing a reserve list for appointments were ultra vires, as they violated the statutory provisions. Consequently, the special leave petition was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
