TET Supreme Court: Multiple Review Petitions in Supreme Court Over TET Verdict, Who Filed Them? Get the Details
TET Supreme Court: The Supreme Court’s verdict on the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) on September 1, 2025, has caused a stir across the country. While discussions about the impact and future of this verdict are at their peak, multiple review petitions have been filed in the nation’s highest court challenging this decision. According to officially available information, at least two major organizations have applied for a reconsideration of this verdict, creating new hope and apprehension among TET job aspirants. Speculation is rife about which direction these petitions will steer the future of the TET process. Let’s delve into the detailed information on this matter.
Two Confirmed Review Petitions
According to data registered on the Supreme Court’s website, two review petitions have been filed so far challenging the September 1st ruling. Each petition holds its own significance and represents different states.
- All India Primary Teachers Federation: The first review petition has been filed by the national teachers’ organization, the All India Primary Teachers Federation. This case has been filed against the State of Maharashtra. The petition was submitted to the Supreme Court on September 25, 2025. This move by the federation is seen as a reflection of the concerns of teachers at the national level regarding the TET verdict. They have challenged specific aspects of the September 1st judgment in their application.
- Government of Uttar Pradesh: The second and highly significant review petition has been filed by the Government of Uttar Pradesh. This case is against the Anjuman Isadi Talim Trust, which was one of the main petitioners in the original Supreme Court case. The Uttar Pradesh government filed this petition on September 16, 2025. When the government of one of the country’s largest states challenges a Supreme Court ruling, its importance naturally increases. This step proves that the state government is firm in its stance on the TET verdict and is prepared to continue the legal battle.
An Important Update
A new and significant development has occurred in the context of the case filed by the Uttar Pradesh government. On September 26, 2025, an individual or entity filed an application for Intervention/Impleadment in this case. A ‘vakalatnama’ (a document empowering a lawyer) was filed on their behalf on the same day. Although the identity of the applicant has not been disclosed in detail, this move has added another layer of complexity to the case. It means that a party other than the original litigants wants to directly participate in this legal fight, which could influence the course of the case.
What Does the Future Hold?
For now, these two review petitions have been officially registered. Although there are rumors that some other states or organizations might also file review petitions, no confirmed information has yet appeared on the Supreme Court’s records. The future of TET job aspirants largely depends on when these review petitions will be heard and whether the Supreme Court will accept these applications. If the court accepts the petitions and decides to conduct a rehearing, a possibility of a change in the September 1st verdict may arise. We will keep a close watch on the Supreme Court’s next steps for all updates and accurate information.
