Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the challenge by the Secretary of Cannanore District Muslim Educational Association against the non-sanctioning of Higher Secondary courses, which was based on the Pre-degree Courses (Abolition) Act, 1997. The Court held that the denial of sanction for Higher Secondary classes was discriminatory and upheld the right of the appellant to establish such courses, emphasizing the need for fair implementation of educational policies. The Court directed that the appellant's application for Higher Secondary courses be considered in light of the assurances previously given by the government.
