Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Allahabad High Court's directive for the Inspector of Schools to inspect the primary school under the Payment of Salary Act, 1971, to determine the status of the primary section attached to the upgraded High School. The Court found that the primary section had been functioning since 1970 with significant student enrollment, justifying its attachment to the High School. However, the Court refrained from making a decision on salary payments for untrained teachers due to unclear legal and factual circumstances, directing further inquiry instead.
