Assistant teacher recruitment

The written test for selection of candidates for the post of assistant teachers of government high schools was postponed due to the allegation of question paper leakage. It was reported that some BG Press employees and officials were involved in the leakage and a syndicate had long been involved in it. We hope the government would take tough action against the culprits so that no one in future thinks about it. However, the candidates for the post of assistant teachers of government high schools are now highly frustrated as the govt. has not yet fixed the fresh date for the exams. On the other hand, the govt. schools have been facing a lot of problems due to teacher shortage. At the very beginning of this year, the govt. ordered opening of double- shift classes in 80 schools at the district level. As there is shortage of teachers in those schools, the authorities of those schools started double shift classes only in the entry classes. Without recruiting an adequate number of teachers it is not possible to start double shift in all classes.
So, the govt. should declare a fresh date for the recruitment test as early as possible.
