Summary of C.A. No. 2227/1999 - Md. Mortuja Hussain v. Afia Khanam Choudhury The Supreme Court allowed the appeal on November 21, 2001, setting aside the High Court's orders that had challenged the appellant's appointment as Lecturer in English at N.C. College Badarpur. The Court held that assessments of academic qualifications, particularly evaluating whether an academic record is "consistently good," belong to academic bodies themselves and should not be subjected to judicial interference when expert selection committees are satisfied with the candidate's qualifications. The Court dismissed the respondents' writ petition and reinstated the appellant's appointment, which had commenced from January 6, 1993.
