Mohammad Shujat, Ali & Ors. Etc vs Union Of India & Ors. Etc on 3 May, 1974

In the case of Mohammad Shujat Ali vs. Union of India (1975) 3 SCC 76, it was held that the question in regard to equivalence of educational qualifications is a technical question, to be determined on proper assessment and evaluation of the relevant academic standards and practical attainments of such qualifications. It was further held that where the decision of the Government is based on the recommendation of an expert body which possesses the requisite knowledge, skill and expertise for adequately discharging such a function, the Court, uninformed of relevant data and unaided by the technical insights necessary for the purpose of determining equivalence, would not lightly disturb the 29 decision of the Government, unless it is based on extraneous or irrelevant considerations or actuated mala fides, or is irrational and perverse or manifestly wrong.
