Vidya K. vs The State Of Karnataka

The Supreme Court held that the Karnataka Administrative Tribunal's decision to quash the notification for filling 18 posts of Home Science lecturers was erroneous, as the recruitment rules do not mandate specifying subject breakups within Home Science. The Court emphasized that the Tribunal's reliance on policy considerations was misplaced and affirmed the recruitment process, thereby upholding the appointments made based on the original advertisement. Consequently, the appeals were allowed, and the judgments of the Tribunal and High Court were set aside.
