- Allahabad High Court rules that selection cannot be cancelled or services terminated after allowing a person to work for a long time.
- The case involved teachers who were selected for employment at Dr. Shakuntala Mishra National Rehabilitation University.
- They had submitted their qualifications, appeared for interviews, and were recommended for appointment.
- However, their services were later terminated by the university.
- The court found that the cancellation of their selection was conducted in violation of natural justice principles, as the decision was made by the Executive Council without proper hearing.
- The university also failed to follow the appropriate procedures outlined in the Uttar Pradesh Government Servants (Discipline and Appeal) Rules.
- The court concluded that the termination order was illegal and arbitrary, as the petitioners were qualified for their positions.
- Therefore, the court allowed the petition and set aside the impugned order.
