Shesh Mani Shukla vs D.I.O.S Deoria & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the appointment process for teachers under the U.P. High School and Intermediate Colleges (Payment of Salaries & Teachers and Other Employees) Act, 1971. The Court held that the Management Committee lacked the authority to appoint teachers without following the prescribed procedure, as outlined in the First Removal of Difficulties Order, 1981. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition was rejected, affirming the lower court's ruling that the Committee's actions were not in accordance with the law.
