Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court overturned the Madhya Pradesh High Court's decision to restore a writ appeal concerning the retirement age of university employees. The court found that the High Court had erred in recalling its earlier order that extended the retirement age to 62 years. Consequently, the Supreme Court upheld the original decision allowing the appellant's continued service until the age of 62, reinforcing the legal principle regarding age of superannuation in educational institutions.
