Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the interim order of the Bombay High Court, which had vacated a stay on the Tribunal's decision regarding the respondent's termination. The Court held that the Tribunal's finding, which stated that the respondent was appointed against a permanent vacancy and that the Head Master lacked authority to terminate, was unwarranted given the clear terms of the appointment order. The Court directed the High Court to expedite the disposal of the writ petition, thereby setting aside the High Court's order.
