Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Kerala High Court's decision regarding the takeover of aided schools under Section 15 of the Kerala Education Act, 1958. The Court affirmed that the State's action was justified as it was in the interest of the students and complied with the statutory provisions. The appeals by the Ex-Managers were dismissed, confirming the High Court's ruling that the State had the authority to take over the institutions in question.
