In Brief
A Physical Instructor employed at Narendra Dev University of Agriculture and Technology sought permission to continue working until age 62, the same retirement age afforded to other teaching staff. The High Court had ruled in his favour. The university appealed to the Supreme Court, arguing the instructor should not receive the same benefits as other teachers. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision, holding that a Physical Instructor occupies a teaching post and is therefore entitled to continue employment until age 62, like other teachers. The appeal was allowed, and the university was directed to implement the order within two weeks.
