Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, while adjudicating W.P.(C) No. 59 of 2010 under Article 32 of the Constitution, held that the State of Jharkhand is legally obligated to appoint trained teachers to vacant posts of Assistant Teachers, as mandated by prior commitments and rules. The Court emphasized the fundamental right to primary education and directed the State to prioritize the appointment of qualified candidates based on seniority. The judgment reinforces the principle that the State must adhere to its own recruitment rules and ensure that trained teachers are appointed in accordance with the law.
