Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by issuing blanket prohibitory directions to the State Government regarding the transfer of employees in autonomous Ayurved colleges, which are governed by their own specific rules. The Court emphasized that the High Court should have limited its adjudication to the merits of the individual employee's case rather than imposing general restrictions. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's directions, reaffirming the principle of judicial restraint in such matters.
