Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that teachers in private aided educational institutions in Madhya Pradesh are entitled to an enhanced age of superannuation of 65 years as per the Madhya Pradesh Shaskiya Sevak (Adhivarshiki Ayu) Second Amendment Act, 1998. The Court emphasized that the amendment applies to all teachers, including those appointed under the provisions of Statute No.28 of the Indore University. Consequently, the appeals were allowed, affirming the entitlement of the appellant and similarly situated teachers to the extended retirement age.
