Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the termination of employees Kailash Singh and Jeffry Jobard from Mayo College, Ajmer, under the principles of service law. The Court held that the terminations were justified due to the employees' involvement in disruptive activities and protests against the management regarding bonus payments, which violated the institution's operational integrity. The Court emphasized that the management's authority to maintain discipline and order in an educational institution is paramount, thereby upholding the terminations as lawful under the relevant service regulations.
