Case Title:
P.C. MODI v. THE JAWAHARLAL NEHRU VISHWA VIDYALAYA AND ANOTHER.(2023 SC)
The Hon'ble Supreme Court observed that merely because a Physical Training Instructor (PTI) is not expected to conduct classes within four walls of the college, it would not make him ineligible for being treated as a teacher.
"Merely because the appellant, a PTI/Sports Officer, was not expected to conduct classes within the four walls of the College, as in the case of a Professor/Associate Professor/Assistant Professor, would not by itself make him ineligible for being treated as a teacher for all practical purposes inasmuch as most sports require training in open spaces/fields/courts etc.,” the Court stated.
