Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Gujarat Primary Education Tribunal, which ordered the reinstatement of the respondent teacher, finding that the termination of his services by the appellant Trust violated Section 40B of the Bombay Primary Education (Gujarat Amendment) Act, 1986. The Court emphasized that proper procedure, including serving a show cause notice and obtaining approval from statutory authorities, was not followed in the termination process. Consequently, the appeal by the Trust was dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's ruling on reinstatement and back wages.
