SATIMBLA SHARMA vs ST.PAUL SR.SECONDARY SCHOOL .

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of salary disparities between teachers of private recognized aided schools and their counterparts in government schools under the framework of service law. The Court emphasized that teachers in aided schools are entitled to emoluments equivalent to those in government schools, as established in prior rulings, particularly referencing the decision from 1992 that mandated equal pay for equal work. The Court ultimately upheld the principle of parity in pay, reversing the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition and directing the State to ensure compliance with the established pay scales.
