Teacher Recruitment Process in Bihar: NIOS and D.El.Ed Degree Holders Reassured

The teacher recruitment process in Bihar is in full swing. As of now, over 1,20,000 teachers have been appointed, and the recruitment process for more than 1,20,000 additional teachers is underway.

In a recent development, the Supreme Court has ruled that teachers with NIOS and D.El.Ed degrees can also be appointed to teaching positions in primary and middle schools. This decision has brought about a significant change in the teacher recruitment process in Bihar.

Previously, teachers with NIOS and D.El.Ed degrees were not considered eligible for teacher recruitment. However, with the Supreme Court’s ruling, these degree holders now have a pathway to teaching positions.

Despite this positive development, there has been some confusion surrounding the implications of the Supreme Court’s decision. The Bihar Education Department has not yet issued any clarification on the matter.

In response to this uncertainty, KK Pathak, the Additional Chief Secretary of Bihar’s Education Department, has assured teachers with NIOS and D.EL.Ed degrees that their appointments will not be affected by the Supreme Court’s ruling.

Pathak stated that the Supreme Court’s decision will only apply to future teacher recruitment processes. The appointments of teachers who have already been recruited, regardless of their qualifications, will remain valid.

This assurance from Pathak has provided much-needed relief to NIOS and D.EL.Ed degree holders in Bihar who were concerned about the potential impact of the Supreme Court’s ruling on their employment status.
