Justice Denied: 26,000 Teachers Terminated in West Bengal

On April 3, 2025, the Supreme Court, in an unprecedented judgment, nullified the appointments of 26,000 secondary and higher-secondary government school teachers in West Bengal. These teachers were recruited through the West Bengal School Service Commission examination in 2016. Subsequent allegations of corruption in the recruitment process prompted a CBI-led investigation ordered by the Calcutta High Court in 2021. Following the CBI's report, the Calcutta High Court terminated these teachers in 2023.
