Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Bihar School Examination Board's resolution dated 27.2.2004, which canceled the results of students from unrecognized Primary Teachers Training Colleges. The Court held that the recognition granted prior to the enactment of the National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1995, was invalid, and thus the Board's action was justified. The Court dismissed the appeals, affirming the lower court's decision based on the principles of delay and laches under Article 226 of the Constitution.
