Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the termination of the respondent's services as a temporary teacher was valid under Section 9 of the Maharashtra Employees of Private Schools (Conditions of Service) Regulation Act, 1977, as his appointment was for a fixed term ending on 30.04.1988. The Court emphasized that the management's decision to not continue the respondent's employment was in accordance with the terms of the appointment letter. Consequently, the appeal against the termination was dismissed, affirming the legality of the school's actions.
