#regular appointment

A teacher who completes two years of probation under the MEPS Act, 1977 acquires deemed permanent status and cannot be denied transfer to an aided post on technical grounds. This ruling affirms that regular status under Section 5(2) is a substantive right, not merely procedural, and protects educators from administrative evasion of statutory entitlements.

Himachal Pradesh High Court invalidated the state recruitment law for violating the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, directing regularization of disabled employees from their original appointment date. The ruling reinforces the supremacy of central disability rights legislation over conflicting state laws, impacting all similarly placed employees.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court at Gwalior directed authorities to consider a contractual teacher's claim for regular appointment or Adhyapak Samvarg benefits under the 2008 Rules, without requiring a fresh eligibility test, relying on binding precedents. The ruling mandates consequential benefits within 90 days, reinforcing parity for similarly situated contractual employees under service law.
