Allahabad HC Orders Probe into Reinstatement of Teacher in Barabanki College

The Allahabad High Court ordered a probe into the reinstatement of teacher Abhay Kumar at Barabanki College, following a petition by the college management. The court found his rejoining in September 2025 illegal, as he had joined another school in June 2024 without permission and was denied lien retention. It directed the transfer of the Barabanki District Inspector of Schools and disciplinary action against the former joint director of education. The court also called for salary recovery and improved communication within the education department. A compliance report is due by May 28.
