Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the entitlement of teachers for leave encashment under the statutes of Pune University, specifically referencing the orders from the Bombay High Court regarding Writ Petition Nos. 8763 and 8775 of 2007. The Court upheld the principle that institutions must pay leave encashment for up to 180 days upon retirement and clarified that they can seek reimbursement from the State, provided the claims are admissible under law. The Court affirmed the High Court's directive, ensuring that the teachers receive their due payments promptly.
