Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court reviewed its earlier judgment in Brahmo Samaj Education Society & Ors. Vs. State of West Bengal & Ors., which had held that aided institutions have the right to appoint teachers of their choice from among NET/SLET-qualified candidates, citing Articles 19(1)(g) and 19(1)(6) of the Constitution. The Court found that this decision required reconsideration due to its implications on teacher appointments and referred the matter to a Constitution Bench for re-examination. The interim order from the previous judgment was extended until further orders.
