What is the whole matter?
Petitioner lecturer Akhilesh Kumar Tripathi has filed a petition in the High Court through his advocate demanding that a B.Ed degree be made mandatory to become a principal from a lecturer. He argues that the principal is the head of an educational institution, so educational qualifications should be given priority.
In response to this petition, lecturer Lunkaran Thakur filed an intervention petition on behalf of the Principal Promotion Forum. In this, he argued that the post of Principal is administrative, not completely academic. Therefore, it would not be logical to make B.Ed degree mandatory.
What happened in the High Court?
During the hearing, advocate Alok Bakshi presented his side on behalf of the petitioner Akhilesh Tripathi, while Additional Advocate General Yashwant Thakur was present on behalf of the government. After hearing the arguments of all the parties, the High Court directed that whatever necessary answers and documents are there, they should be submitted as soon as possible.
What will happen next?
Now the next hearing of this entire case will be held on 16 April. This hearing will decide whether B.Ed degree will be mandatory for the post of Principal in future or not. This decision can affect thousands of lecturers and officials holding administrative posts. Now everyone’s eyes are fixed on the next decision of the High Court, which can give a new turn to this important educational and administrative debate.
