Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Chandra Mohan Varma, determining that he was entitled to continue in service as a Professor until the age of 65 based on the Uttar Pradesh government's notification extending the retirement age. The court found that the appellant's prior extension of service constituted a legitimate expectation of continued employment under the new retirement age policy. The judgment overturned the High Court's dismissal of his writ petition, affirming his right to remain in service until the newly stipulated retirement age.
