GUWAHATI
The Assam Government has initiated the scrutiny of Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) and Diploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed) certificates awarded by universities in West Bengal to teachers in the State.
A letter in this regard was issued by Mamata Hojai, Assam Director of Secondary Education, on July 11 to the inspectors of schools, but it was made available to the media on Wednesday. It was based on a complaint lodged by one Hirok Sarma, who claimed many teachers in Assam were in possession of illegal B. Ed and D.El.Ed certificates issued by West Bengal universities.
