Case History
Case Summary: IIT v. Paras Nath Tiwari (C.A. 7240/2001) The Supreme Court allowed IIT Kanpur's appeal on 21 February 2006, setting aside the High Court's judgment that had directed consideration of respondent Tiwari for permanent employment as Aircraft Maintenance Engineer despite his failure to obtain requisite DGCA aircraft maintenance license. The Court held that legal requirements under Aircraft Act 1934 and Rules 1937 mandating licensed engineers for aircraft maintenance must override employment contracts, and the Institute properly imposed a probation condition requiring license acquisition within reasonable time, which Tiwari failed to fulfill.
