HC sets aside order on TRB selection process
21/08/2019 , Staff Reporter, Madurai
The Bench of the Madras High Court on Tuesday directed the State government to incorporate necessary amendments to the Tamil Nadu Education Subordinate Service Rules to bring it in tune with the eligibility criteria prescribed by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE).
The court observed that this should be done by considering the change in nomenclature of courses and their equivalence so that future recruitments would be in strict adherence with NCTE norms and free from unnecessary complications, paving way for unwanted litigations and delay.
A Division Bench of Justices N. Kirubakaran and S. S. Sundar disposed of a batch of review applications and writ appeals filed against the striking down of the Tamil Nadu Teachers Recruitment Board’s selection process held for the selection of special teachers in the cadre of Physical Education Teacher.
The court set aside the order of a single bench that struck down the entire selection and the recruitment notification. The single bench had held that the notification calling for the recruitment to the post was not in consonance with the subsequent changes made in the field of physical education.
It took cognisance of several changes introduced and redesigned from 2004. The one-year course of Higher Grade in Physical Education was scrapped in 2004 and reintroduced as a two-year course as Certificate of Physical Education. This course was redesigned in 2006 as a two-year Diploma in Physical Education.
The Division Bench held that the single bench ought not to have scrapped the entire selection process and directed the TRB to consider the candidature of the writ petitioners based on merit.
