The Supreme Court on Thursday invalidated the appointment of 25,753 teachers and other staff in state-run and state-aided schools in West Bengal, terming their selection process "vitiated and tainted".
A bench comprising CJI Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar upheld a Calcutta High Court verdict dated April 22, 2024, annulling the appointments and ordered the state government to initiate a fresh selection process to be concluded within three months.
Responding, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said she could not accept the Supreme Court's verdict.
