    Case Summary: CWJC/6914/2026 The Patna High Court allowed the writ petition filed by three primary school teachers (Madhu Kumari, Ashok Kumar, and Santosh Kumar Bhagat) whose services were terminated by the State of Bihar's education authorities. The court found that their termination orders violated principles of natural justice because they were removed without being given prior notice or opportunity to defend themselves against allegations of submitting forged documents. The court quashed the termination order dated 14.10.2022 and directed reinstatement, with further proceedings to follow in accordance with law; no back salary was awarded for the intervening period.
