Kolkata The Calcutta High Court on Friday refused to intervene in the matter pertaining to the service of primary teachers holding jobs on invalid certificates awarded by the Primary Teachers Training Institute (PTTI). Consequently, about 40,000-odd primary teachers appointed between 1998 and 2005 with invalid certificates will remain in service.

Rejecting the petition, a Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Mohit S Shah and Justice Pinaki Chandra Ghosh said the court should not intervene in the services of primary teachers as former Chief Justice S S Nijjar had rejected the same plea, while delivering its judgment on October 1, 2008. The High Court observed that thousands of primary teachers would be affected if the court intervened in their service.

In an order passed on October 1, 2008, the High Court had derecognised 121 PTTI institutes on grounds that they were operating without NCTE permission. Following this, the certificates of about 75,000 PTTI students had become invalid.
