| Decision |
The Supreme Court dismissed the petitions for leave to appeal, affirming the decision of the Punjab Service Tribunal. The Court found that the petitioners were irregularly appointed as P.T.C. teachers without proper procedure, as there was no advertisement for the posts and no merit list or interviews conducted. The Tribunal's findings were upheld as there was no substantial question of law of public importance to warrant interference. The petitioners failed to prove that their appointments were valid and that they had a right to remain in service, leading to the dismissal of their appeals. |
| Summary |
This case involves a legal dispute concerning the removal of P.T.C. teachers appointed in 1996 from their positions in the Education Department. The Supreme Court of Pakistan reviewed the case after the Punjab Service Tribunal dismissed the petitioners' appeals against their removal. The main issues revolved around the irregularities in the appointment process, including the lack of advertisement, interviews, and merit lists. The Court concluded that the petitioners could not substantiate their claims against the Tribunal's findings, resulting in the dismissal of their petitions for leave to appeal. This case highlights important aspects of employment law, administrative procedures, and the rights of public sector employees in Pakistan, making it significant for legal practitioners and scholars. |
