3rd
May, 2012- Those waiting for the decision of the Nainital High Court
regarding the UTET-1 or the VBTC might have some good news on Monday. The court
will write the judgment on Monday.
Few things need mention here regarding debate in the
court.
1- As all the
candidates of the UTET-1 are residents of Uttarakhand, Court said candidate
must have choice of filling the form from any district.
2- Court asked
the government that the why not this notification be cancelled because it has
not included the term BTC along with the B.Ed. in the minimum qualification.
But here government has said that there were no BTC
candidates available at that time.
3- The court also
seemed not happy with the regular BTC’s petition for delaying the process.
Court also said that seats cannot be reserved for them and that any recruitment
process cannot be put on hold till completion of any course by anybody. And
also asked that why not they be fined for the some reasons.
4- Court also
favored the merit wise over the year wise selection process.
These are some of the points that came up during the hearing
of VBTC in the Court today and yesterday but please note that whole matter
will be clear only after the written verdict comes on 7th May, 2012.
It depends how the verdict is passed in the technical terms and its short term
and long term implication. Further it has to be seen how the opposing parties
react to the verdict and their course of action.
8th May,
2012- So today the court came out with the judgment and within a
neutral view, we are still thinking whom to congratulate? You might have
read the main theme of the verdict as commented below by the respected
visitors. And it was almost expected provided that nothing goes wrong
dramatically.
Here are some of the points you would like to know about
today’s verdict regarding VBTC or UTET-1 or BTC:
1- Court has rejected the plea for the stay on the
process of primary teachers’ recruitment in Uttarakhand through VBTC. The
appeal was declared baseless by the court by citing examples.
2- There shall be no change in the recruitment process or
the original notification. So it means it will be year wise, and district wise
and later on state counseling as mentioned
in the original advertisement.
3- Court has said nothing serious about the TET
qualification of the regular BTC candidates. It means they are exempted from
it.
4- Regular BTC candidate however will have the seats reserved
(out of those 4500 seats) as you might know through our previous article. B.Ed
and UTET-1 candidates will have those 2253 posts.
5- Court was not in mood to indulge in the nitty gritty
of increase in the seats as court viewed it as matter of the state government
or to be exact it is in the hands of Mr. Naithaniji.
24th May,
2012- Regular BTC has gone to the double bench with their previous
contention and the B.Ed. and UTET-1 peoples now have counter filed a writ for
making TET necessary for the BTC candidates for appointment as primary
teachers. And 5th June is fixed as a date of hearing in this case.
Regarding another issue of NCTE, NCTE has said that it has
given permission for inclusion of the candidates with more than 45% in graduation
not less than that. And that relaxation is for one time only. And it would
not be extended.
31st May, 2012-
CM Bahuguna has suspended this recruitment process by giving casual reason
and lollypop (perhaps till he wins election which is in fact a daunting task
for him). Their contention is that the number of seats and the vacancies were
not fulfilling the criteria of 30:1 ratio of student is to teacher as required
under right to Education (RTE). But these are all political gimmicks and
casualness on part of our decision makers which are not very difficult to
understand.
There are many questions that can be raised regarding such
irresponsible step.
First of all how come such mistake occurred and got
unnoticed after several months even when the case has been in the court also?
The process could have moved alongside the correction or
amendment if any required. Why to stop it altogether?
And see the announcements made by the Ministers!
However it is not that easy to fool the educated persons
as you can see from the comments of the respected visitors given below. They
may be helpless though.
7th June,
2012- This case as supposed to be looked into by the double bench on 5th
June, came up today and result is that
the both the writs as filed by the regular BTC candidates and the B.Ed. plus
TET candidates (please read above) have been quashed.
8th July,
2012- you may have been getting updated through the comments and discussion
of our visitors so we are also bit late in posting the update here. Actually we
were waiting for something serious and solid enough among the rhetoric reports
coming in different newspapers (our some visitors had already posted the
reports from different newspapers in the comments). One good thing we observed
that a commenter even posted information gained through RTI. Such initiative is
definitely encouraged here. And if anyone of you has such info then we can
post it in the main section with your name. Use the “contact” page for this if
you are interested.

come.
