Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the Parshavanath Charitable Trust's shift of its college premises without prior approval from the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the University of Mumbai, violating regulations under the AICTE Act. The Court held that the Trust's actions were unauthorized as they failed to obtain necessary No Objection Certificates and an Occupation Certificate before relocating. Consequently, the Court upheld the Bombay High Court's decision, affirming the need for compliance with statutory requirements for educational institutions.
