Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision mandating the payment of wages to teachers as per the Maharashtra Employees of Private Schools (Condition of Service) Regulation Rules, 1981. The court rejected the petitioners' argument to limit arrears to three years prior to the writ petition's filing, affirming the obligation to pay full arrears. The ruling emphasizes the importance of adhering to established pay scales for educational staff.
