West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh Address TET Requirements for In-Service Teachers
West Bengal and Madhya Pradesh education departments are addressing the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) requirements for in-service teachers appointed before TET became mandatory.

Meanwhile, over 100,000 teachers in Madhya Pradesh seek clear guidelines and written assurances that qualifying TET will not affect their past service, seniority, or benefits amid confusion over varied appointment rules and timelines.
