MNGG. CO. OF PEOPLES'ACA.PRI.SCH.. vs STATE OF JHARKHAND . — C.A. No. 4244/2001

Summary The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal by MNGG Co. of Peoples Academy Public School challenging the High Court's decision that school property vested in the State Government under Section 4(1) of the Bihar Non-Government Secondary School (Taking over Control and Management) Act, 1981. The Court held that by legislative enactment, all non-minority institutions were automatically deemed taken over by the State with effect from October 2, 1980, and no Official Gazette notification was required for non-minority institutions. The Court rejected the appellant's argument that only management control—not property—had vested, and declined to mandate the State provide alternate land for the primary sections.
