Delhi High Court Directs Reinstatement Of Private School Teachers, Says Approval From DoE Necessary For Accepting Alleged Resignations

Live Law  

In a relief to teachers of Rao Manohar Singh Memorial Sr. Secondary School, a Division Bench of the Delhi High Court comprising the Chief Justice and Justice Sanjeev Narula today upheld the order of a Single Bench and directed reinstatement in service of the respondent-teachers. Aggrieved, the appellant had petitioned before a Single Judge of the Delhi High Court, averring that the respondents were gainfully employed elsewhere and the vacancies arising after their resignation had been fulfilled. Before the Division Bench, the respondents’ case remained that the appellant had fabricated the resignation letter to expel them from service without following applicable laws and procedure. It appears that the minutes of meeting dated October, 2012, presented only before the learned Single Judge, have been engineered by the School, only to overcome the Tribunal’s findings.” The court further directed that in case no vacancies subsisted, the respondents shall be accommodated against the immediate next available slot of vacancies.
