Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Madras High Court's decision affirming the Single Judge's order directing the sanction of a Junior Assistant post to Amala Annai Higher Secondary School from June 1, 1994, under G.O.Ms. No. 245 Education Department dated 21.02.1970. The Court found that the management's request for the post was valid despite the school's student strength being below 300 at the time of the request. The Court emphasized that the management had made repeated representations and the state government's refusal was not justified, thus confirming the Single Judge's directive.
