S. DEVASAHAYAM vs JOINT DIRECTOR

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Appellate Authority and the High Court regarding the appointment of the Head Master in a recognized aided school under the Tamil Nadu Recognized Private Schools (Regulation) Act, 1973. The Court found that the appellant did not belong to the feeder category of Post Graduate Assistants as required by Rule 15(4)(i)(d) of the Act, and merely possessing a Master's degree through a condensed course did not qualify him for the position. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' rulings.
