Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Madras High Court's decision affirming the Single Judge's order directing the sanction of a post of Junior Assistant to Amala Annai Higher Secondary School from June 1, 1994, under G.O.Ms. No. 245 dated February 21, 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 the need for compliance with the earlier directives and the relevant government orders, thereby reinforcing the principle of administrative accountability in educational institutions.
