Allahabad High Court has quashed the selection of over 12,000 teachers by the Akhilesh Yadav government in Uttar Pradesh in 2016. A bench of Justice Irshad Ali yesterday said that the 12,460 assistant teachers were selected without following the Uttar Pradesh Basic Education (Teachers) Service Rules, 1981. <br />''<br />''The court also directed initiation of proceedings for selection of candidates afresh and granted three months for completing the selection process.
