Justice T Raja while offering relief to the three teachers who had moved the plea challenging circular dated March 1, 2017 seeking them to take the test, pointed out that a division bench of the High Court on January 24 this year had held that that TET would be mandatory only for those who were appointed after November 2011.
Also, recording additional government pleader P Sanjay Gandhi’s submission that education department would not forcibly obtain any undertaking from the petitioners to take up TET, the judge said, “It is made clear that authorities shall not compel the petitioners to appear for TET. There shall be an order of interim stay of the impugned communication dated March 1, 2017 sent by director of school education.” The case was posted for further hearing on April 18.
