The Supreme Court held that under Section 114A of the Delhi School Education Act, 1973, a resignation from a recognized school must be accepted within thirty days with the approval of the Director of Education. In this case, the appellant school accepted the resignation of the first respondent but did not receive timely approval from the Director, leading to the court's conclusion that the resignation was validly accepted. The court upheld the school's actions, emphasizing the procedural requirements outlined in the Act.
