¶13

The affidavit duly sworn by the Chief Executive Officer, Zilla Parishad, Amravati prescribes that the candidates even if have cleared the Teachers Aptitude and Intelligence Test (TAIT) examination can be considered only if they have cleared Teachers Eligibility (TET) examination.

¶14

It is the contention of the counsel for the petitioners that the same is not the mandate provided under the Administrative instructions dated 15/07/2024. According to him, Clause-(2) of the Administrative instructions dated 15/07/2024 contemplates that in case if the qualified candidates are not available, so as to avoid loss to the students, on contract basis such candidates who have cleared TAIT examination can be considered and appointed.

¶15

The aforesaid contentions, in our opinion, raised by the counsel for the petitioners can be inferred from the reading of the Administrative instructions dated 15/07/2024.
