Indian Supreme Court invalidates appointments of over 25,000 teachers due to recruitment irregularities.

The Supreme Court of India has invalidated the appointments of over 25,000 teachers and staff in West Bengal state-run and state-aided schools due to irregularities in the 2016 recruitment process. The court ordered the state government, led by Mamata Banerjee, to initiate a new selection process within three months. Disabled employees were granted an exception to continue in their roles. The case has sparked political tensions and raised questions about the credibility of the recruitment process.
