Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Allahabad High Court affirming the dismissal of Shiv Kumar Tiwari's writ petition regarding his termination as a Lecturer, citing Section 16F of the U.P. Intermediate Education Act, 1921. The Court established that without the requisite approval from the District Inspector of Schools, Tiwari's appointment was temporary and not permanent, as he had failed to challenge the selection process of his successor. Consequently, the Court ruled that the termination was valid and the appeal was dismissed.
