Teachers Recruitment Test results stayed

Justice MS Ramachander Rao of the High Court of Hyderabad on Friday stayed the declaration of results of Teachers Recruitment Test (TRT) in Khammam and Warangal (old) districts on a complaint of inadequate reservation for the physically different category in secondary grade teacher posts. The judge, however, refused to stay the written examination and other processes.

He passed the interim order on writ pleas filed by Murali and Mallikarjun from Warangal and Khammam respectively. The petitioners said the vacancies in the category of secondary grade teacher meant for physically



different (previous nomenclature was physically handicapped) category were not fully filled in the last recruitment of 2012. 

The leftover vacancies are to be carried forward to this recruitment which was not done. They furnished details of unfilled vacancies in 2012 in these two districts and demonstrated how these were not notified this year as per ‘carry forward’ principle. The judge refused to stall the ongoing selection process but directed the Telangana Public Service Commission (TSPSC) not to announce the results for these two districts.
