    Summary The High Court of Bombay partially allowed three teacher writ petitions, quashing cancellation orders of their employment approvals. The court found the show-cause notices defective for lacking specific charges, the hearings faulty for processing 150 employees in a single day with no oral hearing, and critically, found no fraud or misrepresentation by the teachers. The court restored the teachers' approvals and salaries, ruling that procedural irregularities are condonable and attributable to school management, not employees. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
