casestatus.in Summary

Summary: The Supreme Court granted permission to file the special leave petitions and condoned the delay. The Court declined to interfere with the High Court's dismissal of the petitioners' (guest faculty members') challenge to the eligibility criteria set by the Madhya Pradesh Government but granted them liberty to directly approach the Higher Education Department for consideration of age relaxation and reservation benefits, noting such policy decisions are better taken at governmental level rather than by judicial intervention. The special leave petitions have been disposed of with this direction. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
