Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh: The Madhya Pradesh High Court has granted interim relief to two petitioners challenging the eligibility criteria for the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) 2024. Justice Vishal Dhagat ruled that these petitioners should not be deemed ineligible solely because they are not in their final year of teacher training, pending a final court decision.
The petitioners, Parmanand Gujrati and another, argued that the TET 2024 advertisement's requirement contradicted a Supreme Court ruling in Omkar Singh and Others v. State of Uttar Pradesh and Others. They contended that being admitted and pursuing the mandated teacher training course should render a candidate eligible for the test, regardless of the year of study or examination results.
The high court has scheduled the next hearing for November 23, 2026, and has directed the state government and other respondents to submit their replies by the subsequent hearing date.
