The Jammu and Kashmir government has announced plans to file a review petition in the Supreme Court regarding its recent ruling that mandates in-service teachers to pass the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) by August 31, 2028. This decision follows the Supreme Court's dismissal of previous review petitions challenging the TET requirement. Education Minister Sakina Itoo stated that the government has sanctioned the filing of the petition and is committed to safeguarding teachers' interests. The government has faced criticism from opposition leader Mehbooba Mufti, who expressed concern over the uncertainty faced by thousands of teachers in Jammu and Kashmir. Mufti highlighted that while other states have actively sought to protect their teachers' jobs, the Jammu and Kashmir government has remained silent despite earlier assurances of support. The situation has raised significant concerns regarding the future of teachers in the region, as they face potential job loss without adequate advocacy.
