Uttar Pradesh Challenges TET Mandate for In-Service Teachers

In Uttar Pradesh, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has instructed the Basic Education Department to file a review petition against a recent Supreme Court ruling.

The ruling requires in-service teachers to pass the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET), a move the state government argues disregards the qualifications and experience of these educators.

The court's decision mandates that current teachers without TET certification must obtain it to remain in their positions, sparking controversy and debate over educational policies.
