Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Madras High Court's order regarding the termination of services of failed computer instructors, affirming that they have no right to continue after the second round of regularization. The Court emphasized that the Government must adhere to the current recruitment policy for appointing computer instructors through the Teachers Recruitment Board, and that the writ petitioners are eligible to apply without preference. The decision reinforces the principle that employment rights are contingent upon meeting qualification standards as per the established recruitment process.
