As per case facts, the petitioner, S.Seenivasan, a former Campus Supervisor, filed a Writ Petition challenging the appointment of Dr. Christoper (6th respondent) as Principal of Misrimal Navajee Munoth Jain
...Engineering College. The petitioner alleged that Dr. Christoper lacked the necessary engineering qualifications and experience as per AICTE and Anna University norms, claiming he had a science background and was previously found ineligible. The respondents argued that the petitioner lacked standing, acted out of vendetta, and that Dr. Christoper held an M.Tech and Ph.D in Material Science and Technology from IIT-BHU with over 25 years of experience, making him fully qualified. The question arose whether the 6th respondent met the requisite qualifications and experience for the Principal's post as per AICTE/University regulations, and if the Quo Warranto petition was maintainable. Finally, the Court found the 6th respondent fully qualified and experienced, dismissing the Writ Petition as frivolous, malafide, and without locus standi, imposing a cost of Rs.10,000/- on the petitioner.
