RAJNI BALA AGRAWAL vs LALIT NARAIN MITHILA UNIV.

The Supreme Court ruled that the appointment of the appellant as Principal of Mahila Mahavidalaya was invalid due to the lack of concurrence from the Bihar College Service Commission as mandated by the Bihar State Universities Act, 1976, specifically Section 4(14). The Court emphasized that without such concurrence, the appellant could not claim the position of Principal despite her long tenure. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the decision of the Patna High Court that the appellant was only a Lecturer and not entitled to the benefits of the Principal's post.
