Teachers Eligibility Test required to continue in service; applicability on minority institutions to be examined by larger Bench: Supreme Court Pertinently, the question of whether State can mandate TET for minority institutions and how it would affect their rights, was referred to a larger Bench. The Supreme Court on Monday ruled that the Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) is a mandatory requirement to continue in teaching service or to seek promotion [Anjuman Ishaat-e-Taleem Trust v The State of Maharashtra & Ors]. The Bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and Manmohan, however, provided relief to the teachers who have only five years to reach their age of superannuation and directed that they may continue in service. "However, we make it clear that if any such teacher (having less than five years’ service left) aspires for promotion, he will not be considered eligible without he/she having qualified the TET," it added. Teachers who have more than five years in service are mandated to qualify the TET within two years to continue service, the Court said. "If any of such teachers fail to qualify the TET within the time that we have allowed, they shall have to quit service. They may be compulsorily retired; and paid whatever terminal benefits they are entitled to. We add a rider that to qualify for the terminal benefits, such teachers must have put in the qualifying period of service, in accordance with the rules. If any teacher has not put in the qualifying service and there is some deficiency, his/her case may be considered by the appropriate department in the Government upon a representation being made by him/her," the Court ordered. The Supreme Court today held that qualifying the Teachers' Eligibility Test (TET) is mandatory for those aspiring for appointment as teachers and also in-service teachers aspiring for promotions.. how to apply tet exam 2025 online tet exam 2025 how to apply tet exam apply online 2025 tet exam apply 2025 tamil nadu tntet qualification 2025 tntet exam 2025 notification tet exam 2025 application form tet ctet tet exam breaking news ctet syllabus 2025 latest odisha news teacher eligibility test teacher exam latest news ctet supreme court news current affairs tamil news latest news tnpsc assam tet tnpsc group 4 bpsc special education recruitment 2025 special education teacher recruitment 2025 wb special educator recruitment special educator recuitment rules 2025 wb special educator recruitment notice 2025 west bengal special educator recruitment 2025 wb special educator recruitment notice 2025 special educator recruitment 2025 wb special educator recruitment 2025 tet 2025 special education tet 2025 special education teacher ssc tet 2025 update back office verification post graduate teacher graduate teacher gt pgt update upper primary tet tet cum recruitment tat complete information by gyanlive શિક્ષણ,gyanlive,gyanacademy,maheshsir,chetansir,shikshan sahayak,shikshan sahayak bharti,shikshan sahayak kaymi bharti,vidhyasahayak kaymi bharti,gyansahayak bharti,shikshak bharti news,shikshak bharti update,shikshak bharti today news,sarkari shala ma bharti,tet,tat demo lecture,gyanlive શિક્ષણ,taths,tats,tet1,tat2,tet tat new update,tet2 syllabus 2025,tat exam 2025,tet/tat શિક્ષક ભરતી 2025,gujarat teacher recruitment 2025 wbssc 2nd slst case slst news update 3929 rti wbssc slst new notification wbssc slst news update today mat 1594 case update today nabo diganto 32000 primary case 32000 primary 32000 teacher 32000 primary teacher case update today 32000 teacher case update today primary new notification 2025 2022 tet pass interview notification primary tet pass interview news tn teacher eligibility test latest update pass mark tn tet paper i & ii tn government minister order teacher vacancy big update teacher vacancy 2025 latest news ncte teacher rules 2025 teacher bharti 2025 teacher recruitment without b.ed b.ed खत्म हुआ? ncte b.ed update uptet 2025 news ctet eligibility 2025 teaching eligibility update b.ed eligibility news ncte new guidelines new teacher recruitment rules ncte latest update 2025 b.ed not mandatory teacher vacancy 2025 himanshi singh ctet let's learn up sarkari naukri 2025 up teacher eligibility up teaching jobs 2025 up education news himanshi singh up vacancy up teacher latest news 2025 uttar pradesh teacher vacancy 2025 up teacher bharti 2025 up teacher recruitment 2025 up primary teacher vacancy 2025 up pgt vacancy 2025 up tgt vacancy 2025 up teacher vacancy 2025 #tnpsc state tet latest news #tntet preparation #trb tet judgement news tet judgement ctet judgement #trending ctet supreme court judgement today tet compulsory for promotion ctet promotion court order ctet vs tet latest update ctet supreme court order today #shorts teacher promotion supreme court order tet exam news 2025 supreme court tet latest update tet promotion news tet supreme court judgement
