NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR TEACHER EDUCATION vs GDR COLLEGE OF EDUCATION — SLP(C) No. 23271 - 23272/2008

Summary of SLP(C) No. 23271-23272/2008 On 6 January 2011, the Supreme Court disposed of multiple special leave petitions challenging Delhi High Court orders that directed the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) to process applications for additional B.Ed./D.Ed. intake. The Court upheld the High Court's interim directions, permitting respondent educational institutions to admit students against both originally sanctioned and additional seats, with admitted students entitled to examination eligibility. The Court clarified that these directions would not prejudice pending letters patent appeals before the High Court and left open the question of the vires of NCTE Regulations 8(3) and 8(4) for the High Court's determination.
