Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the qualifications of the appellants, who possessed M.Sc. (Computer Science), were valid for the post of Lecturer in MCA as per AICTE norms, specifically referencing Table-E-2 and Note (2) which allows for such qualifications. The Court found that the University had treated the M.Sc. degree as equivalent to MCA, thus upholding the selection of the appellants. The High Court's decision to set aside their selection was reversed, allowing the appellants to retain their positions.
