Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition challenging his removal from service at the University of Delhi, affirming the validity of the show cause notice and the disciplinary action taken under Ordinance XI. The Court emphasized that the appellant's continued directorship at the ACBR while serving as Vice Chancellor of another university was not permissible under the university's regulations. The judgment reinforces the authority of university governance structures in disciplinary matters, particularly under the relevant ordinances.
