The court ruled that the confirmation of a lecturer's absorption in an improper department is illegal, emphasizing the need for adherence to lawful procedures in educational employment.

The main legal point established in the judgment is the exclusive power and jurisdiction of the University in the matter of absorption of staff of constituent colleges, as provided in Section 4(1)(14....
Absorption of university teachers requires both eligibility and availability of sanctioned posts; mere eligibility does not suffice.
