The State Had Announced It Would Provide Monetary Relief to Non-Teaching Employees

- Tanmay Chatterjee

KOLKATA: The Calcutta high court on Friday ordered a stay till September 26 on a West Bengal government scheme to provide monetary support to non-teaching staff who lost their jobs following a Supreme Court judgment that held the selection process tainted.

The interim stay order, passed by the single bench of Justice Amrita Sinha, comes two months after the Supreme Court, in its April 3 order, scrapped the appointment of nearly 26,000 teachers and staffers in state-aided schools after finding the selection process in 2016 tainted with large-scale fraud and manipulation.
