    Court Decision Summary The High Court of Himachal Pradesh allowed Kashmir Singh's petition and quashed the state's rejection of his re-engagement as a DPE (Director of Physical Education) on PTA basis. The court found that the state's refusal was arbitrary and contradicted the Principal's earlier admission that Singh's services were terminated due to a regular teacher joining, and that the DPE post remained vacant. The court directed immediate re-engagement with Grant-in-Aid benefits from 2007 and seniority entitlements, or alternatively, payment of all benefits with 6% annual interest.
