The new government was yet to conduct the Teacher Eligibility Test. Over seven lakh candidates who had already completed their D.Ed and B.Ed courses would not be able to apply for teachers posts announced with the DSC notification.

Some 50000 candidates who had completed their D.Ed and B.Ed courses in December last were also waiting for their turn to appear for the TET.

He requested the Chief Minister to ensure that the TET was conducted so that the unemployed youths who had pinned their hopes on the DSC notification were not deprived of the opportunity.
