of <h1>Supreme Court Upholds Teacher Recruitment Rules, Emphasizes Adherence to Procedures</h1> <h3>SHANKAR K. MANDAL & ORS. Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS.</h3> SHANKAR K. MANDAL & ORS. Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS. - 2003 AIR 4043, 2003 (3) SCR 796, 2003 (9) SCC 519, 2003 (4) SCALE 203 Issues:1. Legal recruitment of teachers during 1981-1983.Analysis:The Supreme Court judgment revolves around the legality of the recruitment of teachers during 1981-1983. The case involved two appeals against judgments of the High Court of Patna. The High Court had directed the appointment of teachers in elementary schools in various districts by inviting applications from petitioners removed for illegal recruitment. The judgment emphasized considering qualified candidates for appointments and relaxing age limits for those who became overage during service. Special leave petitions challenging the High Court's directions were disposed of by the Supreme Court, emphasizing adherence to recruitment rules in force at the time of initial appointments.The judgment addressed specific cases of writ petitioners regarding age eligibility and appointment considerations. It highlighted the importance of determining the date of initial appointment to assess age eligibility accurately. The Supreme Court directed authorities to decide the eligibility of appellants based on the applicable rules within four months. The judgment clarified that the directions applied only to the appellants in the present appeal. Additionally, the Court upheld the High Court's directions regarding other writ petitioners.In another appeal, the appellants challenged the High Court's decision based on the panel prepared in 1984-85, arguing they were appointed in 1983. The Court noted discrepancies in the appellants' stands before the High Court and emphasized the binding nature of submissions made before the lower courts. The judgment reiterated the principle that parties must address factual inaccuracies in court records promptly. Despite the appellants' contentions, the Court decided to consider the age aspect for the present appellants in line with the connected matter.Ultimately, both appeals were disposed of, with no costs awarded. The detailed analysis of each issue involved in the recruitment of teachers during 1981-1983 provided clarity on age eligibility, adherence to recruitment rules, and the importance of consistent submissions in legal proceedings. The judgment aimed to ensure fair consideration of all relevant factors in determining the legality of teacher appointments during the specified period.
