Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday accused the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh of intentionally stalling the recruitment of 69,000 assistant teachers. He suggested that the government's promise of needing three months to compile the list is suspicious, as a computer could complete the task in hours.
The Allahabad High Court recently directed the state government to draft a fresh selection list within three months, which aligns with the Basic Education Rules and Reservation Guidelines. The court has nullified selection lists from June 2020 and January 2022 due to inclusions from reserved categories.
Yadav's claims suggest that the BJP might be postponing the appointments to alleviate its own tenure, potentially escalating the issue to the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath reassured that his government stands by the reservation benefits and will adhere to court directives.
