What Happened in Today’s Hearing? The 2014 TET OMR Case Unravels!

2014 TET OMR Case: A new turn has emerged in the hearing of the OMR-related case of the Primary TET 2014 in the Calcutta High Court. Although two important OMR cases were scheduled for hearing, one was not heard and the date for the other has been postponed. The case now awaits the verdict of the Supreme Court, which will play a crucial role in determining the fate of the job aspirants. Let’s delve into the details of this case.

Status of the Case in Justice Rajarshi Bharadwaj’s Bench

An OMR-related case (Rabiul Haque’s case) was listed at serial number 71 in Court No. 7 of Justice Rajarshi Bharadwaj. However, Justice Bharadwaj only heard cases up to serial number 65, so this OMR case could not be heard today. The next hearing date for this case has not yet been announced, but it will remain under the court’s consideration.

Hearing of the Case in Justice Amrita Sinha’s Bench

On the other hand, Ramesh Malik’s OMR case was listed for hearing in Court No. 14 of Justice Amrita Sinha. As the case was at serial number 7 in the list, it was heard. During the hearing, the petitioners’ lawyer, Ferdous Sami, informed the court that the matter is currently pending in the Supreme Court and has also been challenged in the Division Bench.

Key Points of the Hearing:

• Reason for Adjournment: Since the case is pending in the Supreme Court, the lawyers for the board and the teachers agreed that the hearing should be postponed.
• Next Hearing Date: Justice Amrita Sinha has set the next hearing date for the case as November 10, 2025, which will be after the Durga Puja holidays.
• Advantage of “Liberty to Mention”: The court has granted the advantage of “liberty to mention.” This means that if the Supreme Court disposes of the case, any party can apply to the court at any time for a fresh hearing.

What is the Future of the Case?

The future of the 2014 Primary TET OMR case is entirely dependent on the verdict of the Supreme Court. The hearing in the single bench will only be possible after a final judgment or decision comes from the Supreme Court. The job aspirants now have to look towards the Supreme Court, as their future will be decided from there. Although this long wait is anxious for the job aspirants, they have to wait as part of the legal process.
