The Calcutta High Court’s division bench on Wednesday set aside a single-bench order that had cancelled the appointments of 32,000 primary teachers recruited through the 2014 TET. The court said irregularities were not proven in all cases and noted that removing teachers after nine years would cause serious hardship to families. A CBI probe had flagged issues in only 264 appointments, with 96 more under review. The bench ruled that the entire recruitment process could not be scrapped based on limited faults. The earlier order had cited absence of an aptitude test and allegations of a cash-for-jobs scam. (PC: India Today)
