RAM TAWAKYA SINGH vs STATE OF BIHAR .

The Supreme Court held that the appointments of Vice-Chancellors and Pro Vice-Chancellors in Bihar were invalid due to non-compliance with Section 10(2) of the Bihar State Universities Act, 1976, which mandates consultation with the State Government. The Court upheld the Patna High Court's decision to quash the notifications of appointment, emphasizing the necessity of following statutory procedures in such appointments. Consequently, the appeals filed by the State of Bihar were dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling.
