Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the applicability of government orders regarding tuition fee exemptions for sterilization beneficiaries under Article 166 of the Constitution of India. The Court upheld the Division Bench's decision that the second order dated 6.11.87, which provided fee waivers for individuals who underwent sterilization, was enforceable despite not being issued in the name of the Governor. The Court ruled that the appellant Institute must grant the fee exemption as mandated by the government orders, thus affirming the right of the respondent to receive the refund and future exemptions.
