H.P.BOARD OF SCHOOL EDUCATION SECRETARY vs ARYA PRATINIDHI SABHA MANAGER — C.A. No. 6935/2009

Summary: H.P. Board of School Education v. Arya Pratinidhi Sabha (CA 6935/2009) The Supreme Court partially allowed the Board's appeal against the High Court's judgment that mandated private schools as examination centres with external invigilators. The Court held that the Board has sole discretion to designate examination centres based on viability assessment, rejecting the High Court's blanket direction for all private schools. However, the Court set aside the High Court's requirement for external invigilators, accepting that deputing staff from outside is impractical, while directing the Government to designate only schools where fair examination can be ensured.
