‘Government should adopt its honest stand’- Mayawati on teacher recruitment issue 

Lucknow| In the case of 69 thousand teacher recruitment in Uttar Pradesh, the Supreme Court has stayed the decision of Allahabad High Court. Regarding this, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) chief Mayawati said that the government should adopt its honest stand in this matter.
Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati posted on social media platform X on Tuesday, “There should be no injustice to reserved category candidates in the UP teacher recruitment case. They must get their constitutional rights. Also, the government should take its honest stand in this matter, so that no injustice is done to them.”

In the case of recruitment of 69 thousand teachers in Uttar Pradesh, the Supreme Court has stayed the decision of the High Court. The court had ordered to prepare a merit list afresh as per the provision of reservation. After the order of the High Court, people taking advantage and loss of this decision are agitating in the state. Some candidates had gone to the Supreme Court against the order of the High Court, during the hearing on which the court stayed the decision of the High Court and issued notice to all the parties. The Supreme Court will now hear the case next on September 25.

In the Lucknow bench of Allahabad High Court, a petition was filed alleging ignorance of reservation in the matter of 69 thousand teacher recruitment. While hearing the case, the High Court had directed to cancel the list of 69 thousand candidates selected in Assistant Teacher Recruitment-2019 and make a new list. The government and other concerned were ordered to release the new list within three months. The High Court said that while making the new selection list, if any currently working assistant teacher is adversely affected, then the benefit of the current session should be given so that the studies of the students are not disrupted.
