Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of the transfer of students from one Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (JNV) to another, highlighting the lack of support for students from different linguistic backgrounds. The Court emphasized the importance of ensuring a conducive learning environment under the National Education Policy, 1986, and held that the abrupt transfer without adequate support mechanisms violated the students' right to education. The Court directed that the petitioners be readmitted to their original JNV, recognizing the need for sensitivity towards cultural and linguistic differences in educational settings.
