The Patna High Court has directed the state government to grant guest teachers the same grace marks as contract teachers in a recruitment case. Justice Anjani Kumar Sharan emphasized the similarity in their duties and ordered the state to resolve the issue within a month. Over 4,000 guest teachers in Bihar stand to benefit from this decision.
Calcutta High Court asserts government lacks blanket authority over all institutions in India, rejecting Election Commission’s bid to requisition district cooperative bank employees for election duties. Justice Bhattacharyya emphasizes banks’ independence from government control as basis for refusal.
