THE STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH vs PRINCIPAL ABHAY NANDAN INTER COLLEGE — C.A. No. 865/2021

Case Summary: State of Uttar Pradesh v. Principal Abhay Nandan Inter College Court Decision: The Supreme Court allowed the State's appeal, upholding Regulation 101 as constitutional and overturning the High Court's judgment that declared it unconstitutional. The regulation prohibits aided institutions from filling Class IV (non-teaching staff) vacancies through permanent recruitment; instead mandating outsourcing arrangements. Key Reasoning: The Court held that aided institutions receiving government aid must comply with conditions imposed by the state, as there is no fundamental right to aid. The regulation reflects a legitimate policy decision made in 2010 prioritizing financial efficiency, supported by Pay Commission recommendations. Policy decisions require demonstration of "manifest arbitrariness" to be challenged; mere disagreement insufficient.
