Addressing a press conference, the Chief Minister said, “I want to seek a major change in the recruitment of teachers from now on. TET must be. But there has been a lot of variation in BEd and higher secondary exam scores. Some do well in the marksheet by enrolling in open school later as the results are not good in higher secondary. As a result, there is an obstacle in giving meritorious candidates in the recruitment of teachers. ’’
