Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of a petition challenging the appointment of a lecturer who lacked the minimum qualifications as per the U.P. State Universities Act. The Court reiterated that only qualified individuals should be appointed and that the Management's failure to follow proper procedures rendered the continuation of the lecturer's service illegal post-30.6.1978. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Vice Chancellor's authority and the legality of prior decisions regarding the lecturer's qualifications.
