Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the management's short-term appointment of the appellant was invalid due to the existence of a substantive vacancy following the retirement of a teacher. The Court directed the respondents to pay the appellant her salary for the period she worked, while allowing the District Inspector of Schools and the State of U.P. to recover the amount from the school management. The previous order of the High Court was set aside, and the appeal was disposed of accordingly.
