Section:

National Training Ordinance (IX of 1980)--- --------S. 4---Rules of Business of Skill Development Council, 2013, Rr. 6 & 7---Skill Development Council ("Council")---Diplomas or certificates awarded by the Council in the fields of art, craft, education or physical education---Legality---Said fields were beyond the domain of the Council, and thus it could not launch any programmes in respect of such fields or award diplomas or certificates---Appointment made on the basis of such certificate or diploma in different educational institutions were liable to be annulled, however the Supreme Court directed that such appointees could continue their jobs provided they met certain conditions.

National Training Board and the Council travelled beyond what they were established for by launching programmes falling exclusively in the domain of art, craft, education or physical education.
