Calcutta High Court orders CBI probe in hiring of primary teachers -Tapas Ghosh and Kinsuk Basu

-The Telegraph

Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay asked central agency to file an FIR

The high court on Monday ordered a CBI investigation into recruitment of teachers in government-aided primary schools by the state’s primary education board.

Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay asked the central agency to file an FIR to initiate an investigation into alleged illegal recruitment of teachers by the board based on the teachers’ eligibility test in 2014.

The judge asked 269 teachers, identified as appointed illegally, not to attend school and to refund the amount they had drawn as salary since their appointment.

The judge also directed the president and secretary of the board to appear before CBI officers at Nizam Palace by 5pm on Monday.

Earlier, the same judge had ordered a CBI probe into alleged illegal appointment of teachers and other staff for secondary schools.

Advocate Firdaus Shamim had moved the high court alleging anomalies in appointment of primary school teachers.

Shamim placed before the court a Facebook post containing a video in which former CBI director and Bengal minister Upendra Nath Biswas said a man whom he identified as Ranjan had been offering teaching jobs in primary schools against money. Justice Gangopadhyay asked the CBI to question Biswas and “Ranjan” and file a report.
