On the one side teachers’ shortage are existing and also 10323 teachers don’t have professional degrees as B.Ed. Due to this, we asked Central Govt for one-time relaxation and Central Govt too permitted for that. Central Govt directed that after passing out, their TET Certificates’ validity will be till 2021, 31st March and those who have professional degree their TET Certificates’ validity will be for 7 years. After receiving permission for relaxation, TRBT conducted a test in October 20, 2019 (Paper-1) and October 26, 2019 (Paper-2)”.

“For TET-1 total 76,477 candidates appealed and appeared 65047 candidates. TRBT announced results but only 428 students could pass out. Result is bad ! This exam was to identify teachers who will teach (Class-1 to Class-5)”, said Nath.
