Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of writ petitions challenging the termination of services of various research assistants appointed by Dr. Punjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth. The Court noted that the selection process was conducted under the Maharashtra Agricultural Universities (Krishi Vidyapeeth) Act, 1983, specifically invoking Section 11 regarding the Chancellor's powers. The Court affirmed that the selection process was valid and that the complaints regarding irregularities did not warrant interference with the appointments made by the University.
