STATE OF W.B. vs MANAGING C.,NIRJHARINI S.B.VIDYALAYA(H.S) — C.A. No. 20883/2017

Case Summary: State of W.B. v. Managing Committee, Nirjharini S.B. Vidyalaya (2017) The Supreme Court allowed appeals by the State of West Bengal regarding non-teaching staff selection in West Bengal high schools. The core issue was whether the 2008 Amendment Act and 2009 Rules governing selection could apply to an ongoing recruitment process. The Court held that no vested rights arise merely from initiating a selection process, so the new scheme could be applied prospectively. The Court set aside the High Court Division Bench's reversal of the Single Judge's decision and allowed all seven consolidated appeals on December 5, 2017.
