SUYASH SHUKLA vs DIRECTOR, HIGHER EDUCATION, U.P. .

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of terminating teachers appointed on an honorarium basis in Uttar Pradesh following the availability of selectees from the U.P. Higher Education Services Commission. The Court found that while the appointment of honorarium teachers should cease, the termination must be justified based on the availability of selectees. The Court set aside the High Court's sweeping order for immediate termination without notice and restored the original writ petition for detailed examination of the selectees' status, emphasizing adherence to due process.
