SC stays Allahabad HC order for fresh selection list of 69000 assistant teachers in UP

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday suspends the Allahabad High Court's order, directing the Uttar Pradesh government to prepare a fresh selection list for the appointment of 69,000 assistant teachers for primary schools.

A bench of Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra kept in abeyance the High Court order, which set aside the selection lists of assistant teachers issued by concerned state authorities in June, 2020 and January, 2022.

The court's order came after hearing senior advocates Rakesh Dwivedi, Ranjit Kumar, Gopal Sankaranarayanan and others in a plea by Ravi Kumar Saxena and 51 others against the High Court order. Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati represented the Uttar Pradesh government.

The court also issued notice to the Uttar Pradesh government and others including the secretary of the UP Basic Education Board.

The bench said it will grant a final hearing in the matter and will fix the plea for hearing in the week commencing September 23.

The bench asked the counsel for the parties involved to file short written notes not exceeding seven pages.

In August, the High Court directed the Uttar Pradesh government to prepare a fresh selection list for the appointment of 69,000 assistant teachers in the state.

The High Court's division bench had issued the order while disposing of 90 appeals filed by Mahendra Pal and others challenging a single-judge order of March 13, 2023. The High Court had directed the Uttar Pradesh government and concerned authorities to complete the process of issuing a new selection list within three months.
