Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the appellant, Suneeta Aggarwal, was estopped from challenging the Vice Chancellor's earlier order declining approval for her selection as Hindi Lecturer after she applied for the re-advertised post without protest. The Court emphasized that her conduct of participating in the selection process and filing a writ petition simultaneously, without disclosing her application for the re-advertised post, disentitled her from relief. Consequently, the Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of her writ petition, affirming the principle of estoppel in administrative actions.
