Relief to B.Ed. teachers: HC declares DSC 2008 appointments regularised

Hyderabad: Teachers with BEd qualification can now take a sigh of relief as the Hyderabad High Court has declared that all the appointments made under DSC 2008 shall now stand regularised in all respects.

Closing the three petitions, the judgment was pronounced by the division bench comprising Justice Sanjay Kumar and Justice N Balayogi. Petitions were filed in the court challenging the action of the authorities in reserving 30 percent of the posts in the cadre of Secondary Grade Teachers (SGT) for candidates with D.Ed qualification. The petitioners argued that the modification was made to the rules through the notification issued on December 6, 2008, after the commencement of the DSC-2008 selection process.

While closing the petitions, the bench pronounced that all the appointments made in this regard shall now stand regularised and that no stay order should operate against them.
