&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Jharkhand High Court today scrapped the appointment of 8,042 government primary schoolteachers, terming the eligibility test conducted by Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) in July to screen candidates arbitrary and illegal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The order of the division bench of Chief Justice Prakash Tatia and Justice P.P. Bhatt means schools will have to wait for teachers longer, as 18,208 posts of teachers (primary and Urdu) have been lying vacant since 2008.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A petition was filed by Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, an outfit for promotion of Urdu, challenging the appointment of the candidates, who were due to get their letters from the state government on Statehood Day on November 15.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The high court had earlier stayed the handing of appointment letters.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government had put the onus on JAC for conducting Teachers&amp;rsquo; Eligibility Tests (TET) after JPSC, that was conducting the tests earlier, was mired in scams and myriad controversies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The bench heard the matter for three consecutive days and passed a detailed verdict today after it sat till late evening. It expressed sympathy with the selected candidates, but argued that their appointment could not be recognised, as the procedure was wrong.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
JAC, which had issued an advertisement for appointment of 18,201 assistant teachers, including 32 Urdu teachers, was to conduct a preliminary as well as a main exam. But, ultimately the main exams weren&amp;rsquo;t held.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Arguing on behalf of Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, advocate Manoj Tandon said JAC had issued the advertisement in March and the exams were held in July while the results were declared on October 14.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government&amp;rsquo;s plan was to hand over appointment letters to the chosen candidates on Statehood Day.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Tandon said the exam conducted by the council was against the norms set by the National Council for Teachers Education. He said JAC conducted the preliminary test and declared the results of some selected candidates for direct appointment without conducting the mains.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Defending the government, additional advocate general Rajiv Ranjan argued that 8,042 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests. The government decided against conducting the main examinations as the number of candidates chosen was less than half the vacancies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government went ahead with its decision and decided to award appointment letters to the selected candidates,&amp;rdquo; he said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ranjan added the petition had been filed by candidates, who could not clear the preliminary exams, to vitiate the appointment process.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
However, the petitioner informed the court that as many as seven questions in the preliminary test were out of syllabus. Moreover, various words in some of the questions were not translated from English into Hindi properly, adding to the woes of many candidates.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The petitioners&amp;rsquo; counsel iterated that the advertisement initially issued by JAC had stated that the candidates would be selected on the basis of a preliminary test followed by a main exam.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government, after declaring the result of the preliminary exams, changed the criterion mentioned in the advertisement by deciding not to hold the main exam. This is arbitrary and cannot be allowed,&amp;rdquo; the advocate argued.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

Jharkhand High Court today scrapped the appointment of 8,042 government primary schoolteachers, terming the eligibility test conducted by Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) in July to screen candidates arbitrary and illegal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The order of the division bench of Chief Justice Prakash Tatia and Justice P.P. Bhatt means schools will have to wait for teachers longer, as 18,208 posts of teachers (primary and Urdu) have been lying vacant since 2008.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A petition was filed by Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, an outfit for promotion of Urdu, challenging the appointment of the candidates, who were due to get their letters from the state government on Statehood Day on November 15.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The high court had earlier stayed the handing of appointment letters.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government had put the onus on JAC for conducting Teachers&amp;rsquo; Eligibility Tests (TET) after JPSC, that was conducting the tests earlier, was mired in scams and myriad controversies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The bench heard the matter for three consecutive days and passed a detailed verdict today after it sat till late evening. It expressed sympathy with the selected candidates, but argued that their appointment could not be recognised, as the procedure was wrong.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
JAC, which had issued an advertisement for appointment of 18,201 assistant teachers, including 32 Urdu teachers, was to conduct a preliminary as well as a main exam. But, ultimately the main exams weren&amp;rsquo;t held.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Arguing on behalf of Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, advocate Manoj Tandon said JAC had issued the advertisement in March and the exams were held in July while the results were declared on October 14.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government&amp;rsquo;s plan was to hand over appointment letters to the chosen candidates on Statehood Day.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Tandon said the exam conducted by the council was against the norms set by the National Council for Teachers Education. He said JAC conducted the preliminary test and declared the results of some selected candidates for direct appointment without conducting the mains.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Defending the government, additional advocate general Rajiv Ranjan argued that 8,042 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests. The government decided against conducting the main examinations as the number of candidates chosen was less than half the vacancies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government went ahead with its decision and decided to award appointment letters to the selected candidates,&amp;rdquo; he said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ranjan added the petition had been filed by candidates, who could not clear the preliminary exams, to vitiate the appointment process.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
However, the petitioner informed the court that as many as seven questions in the preliminary test were out of syllabus. Moreover, various words in some of the questions were not translated from English into Hindi properly, adding to the woes of many candidates.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The petitioners&amp;rsquo; counsel iterated that the advertisement initially issued by JAC had stated that the candidates would be selected on the basis of a preliminary test followed by a main exam.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government, after declaring the result of the preliminary exams, changed the criterion mentioned in the advertisement by deciding not to hold the main exam. This is arbitrary and cannot be allowed,&amp;rdquo; the advocate argued.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Jharkhand High Court today scrapped the appointment of 8,042 government primary schoolteachers, terming the eligibility test conducted by Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) in July to screen candidates arbitrary and illegal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The order of the division bench of Chief Justice Prakash Tatia and Justice P.P. Bhatt means schools will have to wait for teachers longer, as 18,208 posts of teachers (primary and Urdu) have been lying vacant since 2008.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A petition was filed by Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, an outfit for promotion of Urdu, challenging the appointment of the candidates, who were due to get their letters from the state government on Statehood Day on November 15.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The high court had earlier stayed the handing of appointment letters.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government had put the onus on JAC for conducting Teachers&amp;rsquo; Eligibility Tests (TET) after JPSC, that was conducting the tests earlier, was mired in scams and myriad controversies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The bench heard the matter for three consecutive days and passed a detailed verdict today after it sat till late evening. It expressed sympathy with the selected candidates, but argued that their appointment could not be recognised, as the procedure was wrong.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
JAC, which had issued an advertisement for appointment of 18,201 assistant teachers, including 32 Urdu teachers, was to conduct a preliminary as well as a main exam. But, ultimately the main exams weren&amp;rsquo;t held.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Arguing on behalf of Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, advocate Manoj Tandon said JAC had issued the advertisement in March and the exams were held in July while the results were declared on October 14.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government&amp;rsquo;s plan was to hand over appointment letters to the chosen candidates on Statehood Day.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Tandon said the exam conducted by the council was against the norms set by the National Council for Teachers Education. He said JAC conducted the preliminary test and declared the results of some selected candidates for direct appointment without conducting the mains.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Defending the government, additional advocate general Rajiv Ranjan argued that 8,042 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests. The government decided against conducting the main examinations as the number of candidates chosen was less than half the vacancies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government went ahead with its decision and decided to award appointment letters to the selected candidates,&amp;rdquo; he said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ranjan added the petition had been filed by candidates, who could not clear the preliminary exams, to vitiate the appointment process.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
However, the petitioner informed the court that as many as seven questions in the preliminary test were out of syllabus. Moreover, various words in some of the questions were not translated from English into Hindi properly, adding to the woes of many candidates.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The petitioners&amp;rsquo; counsel iterated that the advertisement initially issued by JAC had stated that the candidates would be selected on the basis of a preliminary test followed by a main exam.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Jharkhand High Court today scrapped the appointment of 8,042 government primary schoolteachers, terming the eligibility test conducted by Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) in July to screen candidates arbitrary and illegal.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The order of the division bench of Chief Justice Prakash Tatia and Justice P.P. Bhatt means schools will have to wait for teachers longer, as 18,208 posts of teachers (primary and Urdu) have been lying vacant since 2008.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A petition was filed by Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, an outfit for promotion of Urdu, challenging the appointment of the candidates, who were due to get their letters from the state government on Statehood Day on November 15.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The high court had earlier stayed the handing of appointment letters.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government had put the onus on JAC for conducting Teachers&amp;rsquo; Eligibility Tests (TET) after JPSC, that was conducting the tests earlier, was mired in scams and myriad controversies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The bench heard the matter for three consecutive days and passed a detailed verdict today after it sat till late evening. It expressed sympathy with the selected candidates, but argued that their appointment could not be recognised, as the procedure was wrong.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
JAC, which had issued an advertisement for appointment of 18,201 assistant teachers, including 32 Urdu teachers, was to conduct a preliminary as well as a main exam. But, ultimately the main exams weren&amp;rsquo;t held.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Arguing on behalf of Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, advocate Manoj Tandon said JAC had issued the advertisement in March and the exams were held in July while the results were declared on October 14.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The government&amp;rsquo;s plan was to hand over appointment letters to the chosen candidates on Statehood Day.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Tandon said the exam conducted by the council was against the norms set by the National Council for Teachers Education. He said JAC conducted the preliminary test and declared the results of some selected candidates for direct appointment without conducting the mains.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Defending the government, additional advocate general Rajiv Ranjan argued that 8,042 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests. The government decided against conducting the main examinations as the number of candidates chosen was less than half the vacancies.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government went ahead with its decision and decided to award appointment letters to the selected candidates,&amp;rdquo; he said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ranjan added the petition had been filed by candidates, who could not clear the preliminary exams, to vitiate the appointment process.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
However, the petitioner informed the court that as many as seven questions in the preliminary test were out of syllabus. Moreover, various words in some of the questions were not translated from English into Hindi properly, adding to the woes of many candidates.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
The petitioners&amp;rsquo; counsel iterated that the advertisement initially issued by JAC had stated that the candidates would be selected on the basis of a preliminary test followed by a main exam.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The government, after declaring the result of the preliminary exams, changed the criterion mentioned in the advertisement by deciding not to hold the main exam. This is arbitrary and cannot be allowed,&amp;rdquo; the advocate argued.
&lt;/div&gt;

HC scraps teachers’ selection by Chandrajit Mukherjee

-The Telegraph   Jharkhand High Court today scrapped the appointment of 8,042 government primary schoolteachers, terming the eligibility test conducted by Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) in July to screen candidates arbitrary and illegal. The order of the division bench of Chief Justice Prakash Tatia and Justice P.P. Bhatt means schools will have to wait for teachers longer, as 18,208 posts of teachers (primary and Urdu) have been lying vacant since 2008. A petition was filed by Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, an outfit for promotion of Urdu, challenging the appointment of the candidates, who were due to get their letters from the state government on Statehood Day on November 15. The high court had earlier stayed the handing of appointment letters. The government had put the onus on JAC for conducting Teachers’ Eligibility Tests (TET) after JPSC, that was conducting the tests earlier, was mired in scams and myriad controversies. The bench heard the matter for three consecutive days and passed a detailed verdict today after it sat till late evening. It expressed sympathy with the selected candidates, but argued that their appointment could not be recognised, as the procedure was wrong. JAC, which had issued an advertisement for appointment of 18,201 assistant teachers, including 32 Urdu teachers, was to conduct a preliminary as well as a main exam. But, ultimately the main exams weren’t held. Arguing on behalf of Anjuman Tarique-e-Urdu, advocate Manoj Tandon said JAC had issued the advertisement in March and the exams were held in July while the results were declared on October 14. The government’s plan was to hand over appointment letters to the chosen candidates on Statehood Day. Tandon said the exam conducted by the council was against the norms set by the National Council for Teachers Education. He said JAC conducted the preliminary test and declared the results of some selected candidates for direct appointment without conducting the mains. Defending the government, additional advocate general Rajiv Ranjan argued that 8,042 candidates had cleared the preliminary tests. The government decided against conducting the main examinations as the number of candidates chosen was less than half the vacancies. “The government went ahead with its decision and decided to award appointment letters to the selected candidates,” he said. Ranjan added the petition had been filed by candidates, who could not clear the preliminary exams, to vitiate the appointment process. However, the petitioner informed the court that as many as seven questions in the preliminary test were out of syllabus. Moreover, various words in some of the questions were not translated from English into Hindi properly, adding to the woes of many candidates. The petitioners’ counsel iterated that the advertisement initially issued by JAC had stated that the candidates would be selected on the basis of a preliminary test followed by a main exam. “The government, after declaring the result of the preliminary exams, changed the criterion mentioned in the advertisement by deciding not to hold the main exam. This is arbitrary and cannot be allowed,” the advocate argued.
