Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of withdrawal of a prospective resignation under Section 59 of the Maharashtra Universities Act, 1994. The Court held that while a prospective resignation can generally be withdrawn before its effective date, the specific circumstances of the case indicated an implied understanding that prohibited such withdrawal. The Court upheld the findings of the lower courts, confirming that the appeal was not maintainable and that the right to withdraw the resignation had been waived by the appellant's conduct, thus dismissing the appeal.
