Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the orders of the Division Bench of the High Court, affirming that minority institutions must obtain prior approval from the State Government for teacher appointments as mandated by the circular dated 6.10.1998 and Section 40A of the Gujarat Secondary Education Act, 1972. The Court clarified that this requirement does not infringe upon the internal administration rights of minority institutions under Articles 14, 29, and 30 of the Constitution. The appeal was dismissed, reinforcing the government's authority to regulate recruitment processes in aided educational institutions.
