ABU TAHER vs ABDUL WAHAB . — C.A. No. 1203/2001

Summary: Abu Taher v. Abdul Wahab (C.A. No. 001203/2001) The Supreme Court granted leave to appeal and set aside the Calcutta High Court Division Bench's judgment that excluded Abu Taher from consideration for an Arabic Teacher position solely because his name was not sponsored by the Employment Exchange. The Court found this reasoning erroneous under prior Supreme Court precedents and remitted the case to the High Court to reconsider on the actual merits—whether B.A. with Special Arabic qualifies as equivalent to B.A. with Arabic combination for the teaching post.
