Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal regarding the appointment of primary school teachers by the Pt. Deendayal Upadhyaya Institute for the Physically Handicapped, which altered its selection process by dispensing with interviews and allocating marks for additional qualifications. The Court held that the Institute's discretion in evaluating candidates and modifying the selection criteria was valid under the terms of the vacancy circular, specifically Clauses 14 and 19. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision as the appellant did not meet the required qualifications for selection.
