Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed whether a Typewriter Instructor qualifies as a Teacher under the University Calendar, which includes various educational roles. The Court upheld the High Court's decision that Typewriter Instructors are entitled to the same vacation benefits as teaching staff, as per the Government Circular dated 12.2.1999. The Court allowed the appellant State to amend the University Calendar in accordance with the Government order, with any amendments being prospective, while leaving the legal question open for future consideration.
