MEPS Act Section 5(2) | Completion of Probation Grants Deemed Permanency, Entitling Teacher to Transfer to Aided Post: Bombay HC
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.
