Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the appointment of primary school teachers, specifically focusing on the allocation of marks for additional qualifications as per the revised selection criteria set by the Pt. Deendayal Upadhyaya Institute for the Physically Handicapped. The Court held that the Institute's discretion to modify the selection process, as outlined in Clauses 14 and 19 of the vacancy circular, was valid, and the allocation of marks for additional qualifications was within their rights. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision to uphold the Institute's selection process.
