The high court had earlier directed the JSSC to give a timeline for publishing the results of candidates to be appointed as teachers in govt schools. It expressed annoyance when the commission said that the appointment process would be completed by January 2026. A total of 26,001 assistant teachers would be appointed.
The PIL, filed by activist Dreze, mentioned that Jharkhand is ranked as one of the worst states in terms of the availability of school teachers. A study conducted by the Unified District Information System Education (UDISE) revealed that there is only one school teacher for 30% govt schools.
Under the Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009, every school should have at least one teacher for every 30 students. Most primary and upper primary schools in the state do not comply with these norms, Dreze said in the petition.

Religious Beliefs vs LGBT books: How conservative parents won bigly
The US Supreme Court has ruled that parents can generally stop their children from attending school lessons that go against their religious beliefs, The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. This case came from Maryland, where some parents objected to LGBTQ-themed books being taught in elementary schools. The court sided with the parents, saying they have the right to decide what their children learn if it clashes with their religion. Conservative groups see this as a big win. Eric Baxter, lawyer for the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, said public schools should serve parents, not force children 'into conformity.' However, progressive parents and many teachers worry this will hurt schools' ability to teach tolerance. Erica Watkins, who runs a progressive parent group in Oklahoma, said ''parents' rights' has been overused and weaponized to undermine teachers.' How did this movement grow? The push for parental rights took off in 2021 when Terry McAuliffe, a Democratic candidate for Virginia governor, said in a debate, 'I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 코인 투자금 300만원 있다면 '이렇게'해라 나스닥터 더 알아보기 Undo His Republican rival, Glenn Youngkin, used this to win the election, sparking a nationwide conservative movement demanding more control over schools. Groups like Moms for Liberty, formed in Florida in 2021, grew quickly. They trained school board candidates and wore shirts reading 'We do not co-parent with the government.' Co-founder Tiffany Justice told WSJ that parents are becoming 'more emboldened.' What happens next? Former President Donald Trump backed Moms for Liberty during his 2024 campaign, saying, 'I'm for parental rights all the way.' He also praised Friday's court ruling. Conservative lawyers believe the ruling will help parents fight other school policies, such as rules about students' pronouns and names. Luke Berg from Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty said it's hard to see how parents will lose such cases if they cite religious reasons. But school officials are worried about how to handle students who opt out. Zachary Schurin, a lawyer for Connecticut schools, said teachers will have to find staff to supervise these students during lessons they skip. Could progressives use this too? Some progressive parents are using parental rights laws to opt out of lessons they disagree with. In Oklahoma, Erica Watkins encouraged parents to pull their children out of new social studies classes that question the 2020 election results. In another case, parents argued that bans on gender-transition care for minors violate their rights to raise their children as they see fit. The Supreme Court rejected one such case in Tennessee but did not rule directly on parental rights. 'As a parent, I know my child better than any government official ever will,' said Samantha Williams, a mother involved in the Tennessee lawsuit. Is your child ready for the careers of tomorrow?

Prince Harald dies of sudden cardiac arrest at 63; was on a work trip to Namibia
Photo: Princess Josefa von Hohenzollern/ Instagram Prince Harald von Hohenzollern has died of sudden cardiac arrest in Windhoek, Namibia, where the 63‑year‑old German aristocrat was on a work trip to the diamond industry, his family announced on Monday. Princess Josefa von Hohenzollern, who is eight months pregnant and seeking re‑election as mayor of Leonberg in the German state of Baden‑Württemberg, revealed the news on her Facebook page. 'My beloved husband Harald V. Hohenzollern died quite unexpectedly of a sudden cardiac death. This loss hits me very deep,' she wrote, adding that she would suspend her campaign and step back from social media 'to grieve, say goodbye and be there for our unborn child. ' The couple married in September 2024 in Josefa's hometown of Kollnburg after meeting at a trade fair in 2022. Their first child is due in the coming days. Prince Harald was a member of the former royal House of Hohenzollern, a dynasty that traces its lineage to 1061 and has historic links to Brandenburg, Prussia, Romania and the German Empire. Known locally as the 'singing mayor' for her musical appearances at cultural events, Josefa launched her political career in November 2020, running for Leonberg's post of financial mayor. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Unbelievable: Calculator Shows The Value Of Your House Instantly (Take a Look) Home Value Calculator Search Now Undo After narrowly missing a runoff by one vote, she was elected in May 2021 when the winning candidate withdrew, securing 17 of 33 council votes for an eight‑year term.
