Committee Of Management & Anr vs Vice Chancellor & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the procedural fairness in disciplinary proceedings under the U.P. Universities Act, 1973, particularly Section 35(2). The Court held that the Managing Committee's decision to remove the Principal was invalid as it lacked the necessary approval from the Vice-Chancellor, emphasizing the importance of adherence to statutory requirements in such proceedings. The Court ultimately ruled in favor of the respondent, reinstating him to his position.
