Headnote | Government Accommodation – For retired Government employees who are Kashmiri Migrants – Propriety – Held: Government houses/flats are meant for serving Government employees – There cannot be any justification on the basis of social or economic criteria to allow the Kashmiri Migrants to stay in Government accommodation for indefinite long period – To say that they would return to the Valley when the situation will improve is an open-ended statement capable of being interpreted in different ways – The satisfaction of improvement of situation would be widely different by the erstwhile Government employees and the State – But in no case it can be countenanced that the former Government employee, may be a Kashmiri Migrant, is entitled to stay in a government accommodation for an indefinite period – Impugned Office Memorandum allowing government accommodation to retired Government employees who are Kashmiri Migrants cannot meet the touchstone of Art.14 of the Constitution, and accordingly struck down as being totally arbitrary and discriminatory. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
