For Petitioner : Mr.A.S.Kaizer For Respondents : Mr.K.Karthikeyan, Government Advocate In W.P.Nos.12629 to 12633/2015:

For Petitioner : Mr.A.S.Kaizer For Respondents : Mr.K.Karthikeyan, Government Advocate for R1 to R3 No appearance for R4 C O M M O N O R D E R All these Batch of Writ Petitions are moved mainly for the relief to declare that passing of Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) is not required for Teachers appointed prior to the issuance of the Government orders and further, a direction is sought for to forbear the respondents from insisting the Teachers to pass the Teachers Eligibility Test (TET). 2.The learned Senior Counsel as well as the learned counsels appearing on behalf of the writ petitioners made submissions that the writ petitioners are fully qualified and eligible for the appointment to the Teaching Posts. In spite of that, the respondents are insisting passing of the Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) even in some exempted cases. Thus, the writ petitioners are constrained to move the present writ petitions. 3.The learned Government Advocate informed this Court that after filing of all these writ petitions, number of Government orders were passed and the National Council for Teachers

Education(NCTE) also issued certain guidelines to be followed across the Country under the National Education Policy and under the provisions of the Right to Education Act. Now, the prescription of minimum educational qualification is within the purview of the National Council for Teachers Education (NCTE), which is constituted under the Act of Parliament and the same is to be followed by all concerned scrupulously. The State also issued orders to that effect and the same is to be followed uniformly to all whenever and appointment to the Teaching posts are undertaken.

4.The Government of India effected publication under the provisions of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education(Amendment) Act, 2017. The following Notifications are issued, which is extracted hereunder:

"1.(1) This Act may be called the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education(Amendment) Act, 2017.

(2) It shall be deemed to have come into force on the 1st day of April, 2015.

2.In the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, in section 23, in sub-section(2), after the proviso, the following proviso shall be inserted, namely:- "Provided further that every teacher appointed or in position as on the 31st March, 2015, who does not possess minimum qualifications as laid down under subsection(1), shall acquire such minimum qualification within a period of four year from the date of commencement of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education(Amendment) Act, 2017."

5.The Notification cited supra unambiguously enumerates that every Teacher appointed or in position as on, has to acquire the qualifications of Teachers Eligibility Test (TET). Thus, there cannot by any absolute exemption contrary to the provisions of the said Act, Rules, Regulations and guidelines issued in this regard by the National Council for Teachers Education (NCTE). 6.The learned counsel for the petitioners states that the Government has issued orders, granting exemptions in respect of certain category of Teachers and those orders are also to be considered at the time of implementing the provisions of the Act, Rules, Regulations and guidelines issued by the National Council for Teachers Education (NCTE).

7.In view of the developments took place on account of the establishment of National Education Policy, this Court is of an

opinion that the cases of the writ petitioners are to be considered based on the individual facts and circumstances aroused on account of their respective appointments. It is needless to state that the Right to Education Act and the Notifications issued by the National Council for Teachers Education (NCTE) and subsequent guidelines issued in this regard are to be taken note of and a decision is to be taken in this regard by the respondents namely, the Principal Secretary to Government, School Education Department, Fort St.George, Chennai and the Director of School Education, College Road, Chennai - 6. 8.

In this view of the matter, the State Education Departments officials are directed to consider the cases of all these writ petitioners in the batch of writ petitions on merits and in accordance with law, taking not of the provisions of the Act, Rules, Guidelines and the Government orders issued in this regard and pass orders within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petitioners are at liberty to submit their respective fresh representations to the respective competent authorities and the relevant documents, enabling the competent authorities to consider their cases on merits and in accordance with law.

9.With these directions, all these writ petitions stand disposed of. However, there shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
