KOLKATA: A division bench of the Calcutta High Court will on Wednesday pronounce its judgement in the case on irregularities in the recruitment of 32, 000 primary teachers in state-run schools in West Bengal.
The six-month-long argument in the case ended at the division bench of Justice Tapabrata Chakraborty and Justice Ritabrata Kumar Mitra on November 12. However, the division bench reserved the judgement on that day.
The hearing in the matter at the division bench of the Calcutta High Court started on April 28.
To recall, on May 12, 2023, the single-judge bench of the then judge of Calcutta High Court and the current BJP Lok Sabha member, Abhijit Gangopadhyay, ordered the cancellation of 32, 000 primary teacher jobs in the state.
Gangopadhyay passed the order acting on petitions filed by some candidates alleging that many secured recommendations for appointments despite ranking much lower in the recruitment examinations.
