Allahabad High Court Rules Shiksha Mitras Ineligible for UP Special TET 2026
The Allahabad High Court dismissed petitions by Shiksha Mitras seeking eligibility for the Special Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) 2026, which is designated for current government school teachers. The court clarified that eligibility for the regular TET does not grant Shiksha Mitras the right to appear in the special exam, noting their distinct legal status. This Special TET follows a Supreme Court directive requiring all serving teachers without TET qualification to clear the exam within a year to continue employment.
