The Supreme Court held that the High Court's suo motu action in Writ Petition No.2216 of 2006 was unjustified as it lacked a petition and did not provide notice to the affected colleges, violating principles of natural justice. The Court found that the directions issued by the High Court regarding the appointment of permanent Principals amounted to judicial legislation, which is impermissible. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order while allowing the process for filling Principal posts to continue in accordance with law.
