Gwalior Mahila Mandal vs State Of M.P & Ors

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal challenging the Madhya Pradesh High Court's order which quashed the appointment of the fourth respondent as Principal of the Danaoli School, holding that the appeal had become unnecessary due to subsequent developments: the fourth respondent had left the service and the post of Principal had become a non-grant post. The Court noted that the third respondent was permitted to serve as In-charge Principal until a regular appointment was made, thereby upholding the High Court's interim arrangement. The decision emphasizes the importance of adhering to proper appointment procedures in educational institutions under the relevant state regulations.
