Shriram Manohar Bande vs Uktranti Mandal

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the High Court's judgment which set aside the Tribunal's order reinstating the appellant under the Maharashtra Employees of Private Schools (Conditions of Service) Regulation Act, 1977. The Court held that the Tribunal correctly found the appellant's resignation was lawfully withdrawn and that the respondents had fabricated documents to support their claim of acceptance of resignation. The Court upheld the Tribunal's decision, affirming the reinstatement of the appellant with 50% back wages and other benefits, thereby reinforcing the principles of fair procedure and protection of employment rights under the MEPS Act.
