Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court directing the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to appoint candidates as Assistant Teachers, emphasizing that the discretion to fix minimum qualifying marks under Clause 25 of Advertisement No.1/2006 must align with the principles of fair selection. The Court found that the provisions in the advertisement did not violate any prior judgments, specifically referencing W.P.(C) Nos.5650-51/2004. The appeal by the Municipal Corporation was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order.
