The High Court of Karnataka has permitted the State government to appoint 12,901 teachers from among 13,352 selected candidates from the provisional selection list for the post of graduate primary teacher for classes VI to VIII in government and aided educational institutions.
However, the court said the appointment of the remaining 451 candidates, who have not submitted the caste-cum-income certificate in the prescribed form in terms of the 1986 Government Order but were included in the provisional selection list, be deferred till the outcome of the result of the pleas by the Karnataka State Administrative Tribunal (KSAT).
