J&K: 23 ReT teachers dismissed for acquiring qualification certificates from unrecognised boards

Jammu, Feb 26 (PTI) As many as 23 Rehbar-e-Taleem’ (ReT) teachers were dismissed from services for acquiring their qualification certificates from unrecognised boards during scrutiny ahead of their regularisation in the Jammu division.

Jammu director of school education Ravi Shankar Sharma ordered the termination of the services of the 23 ReT teachers on the recommendations of a committee which was constituted to review the pending regularisation cases in August last year.

According to a communication addressed to the chief education officer, Sharma said the committee in its report observed that these teachers have acquired their qualification from the boards which have not been granted equivalence by the J&K Board of School Education in Jammu due to not being recognised by the Council of Boards of School Education (COBSE) in India.
