News Desk, Kolkata : In a landmark decision, job seekers breathed a sigh of relief as the Supreme Court removed all obstacles in the recruitment process for primary school teachers. On Monday, the green signal was given by the top court, resolving any lingering uncertainties regarding the appointment process. The Supreme Court’s intervention came after a legal tussle over the publication of the recruitment panel’s decisions related to primary teacher appointments.
The issue arose in the context of the recruitment process for 11,765 positions. However, the Primary Education Board had already assured candidates that they had completed all necessary preparations for the recruitment process. Despite this assurance, prospective primary school teachers were anxious due to the legal complexities surrounding the appointment.
In 2022, after the primary Teacher Eligibility Test (TET), many hopefuls have been eagerly awaiting job opportunities. However, complications arose regarding the eligibility criteria for candidates with B.Ed and D.El.Ed degrees. The Supreme Court had directed that applicants with B.Ed degrees would not be eligible for primary school teacher positions. The mandatory requirement for D.El.Ed posed a challenge, given that it was not compulsory during the 2014 TET examination. Subsequent legal directives created further complications.
Candidates who passed the 2014 TET found themselves enrolling in D.El.Ed courses in 2020. Then, in 2022, the recruitment notification was released. However, during this period, the candidates did not receive their D.El.Ed marksheets or certificates. Consequently, a fraction of the applicants found themselves at the mercy of the judiciary. The Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court was responsible for issuing the stay order on the recruitment process. Following this, the Supreme Court, in response to the panel’s publication delay, issued directives.
Despite the complications, 2022 marked the commencement of the recruitment process, with candidates undergoing counseling and interviews. However, due to ongoing legal proceedings, the finalization of the appointment process remained incomplete.
With the Supreme Court lifting the stay order, job aspirants now anticipate the initiation of the recruitment process. The primary school teacher recruitment process has undergone thorough counseling and interview stages, but due to the ongoing case, the process has not reached its conclusion.
The narrative takes a twist with the anticipation that the recruitment process will finally kickstart with the Supreme Court’s intervention. The primary school teacher aspirants, despite facing legal hurdles, hold hope that the delay will soon be resolved, allowing them to secure coveted teaching positions.
The journey from the 2014 TET to the current scenario reflects the challenges faced by candidates, from pursuing additional qualifications to navigating legal complexities. The narrative unfolds as the candidates, armed with newfound hope, look forward to the resolution of their long-standing quest for a teaching career.
In conclusion, the Supreme Court’s intervention serves as a turning point, alleviating the uncertainties surrounding primary school teacher appointments. As the legal clouds dissipate, the spotlight is on the aspirants who await the next chapter in their journey towards fulfilling careers in primary education.
