The Allahabad High Court Friday allowed dozens of Shiksha Mitras to appear provisionally in an examination on January 6 for recruitment of 69,000 assistant basic teachers in Uttar Pradesh, but stayed declaration of their results until further orders.
The order from the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court on multiple writ petitions moved separately by hundreds of Shiksha Mitras.
The petitioners had questioned the issuance of advertisement on December 1, 2018 for recruitment of 69,000 assistant basic teachers in Uttar Pradesh without issuing fresh results of TET 2017 in compliance of a single judge order passed on March 6, 2018.

A bench of justice Rajesh Singh Chauhan allowed the Shiksha Mitras to appear provisionally in the examination.

"The result of the petitioners would not be declared and provisional appearance in the examination would be subject to final outcome of this writ petition," the bench
