Primary school teachers reinstated by HC: Gauhati High Court has reinstated 33 primary school teachers 15 years after their appointment which had been withheld due to official corrupt practices of the Education department in Lakhimpur district. The 33 teachers are a part of 517 primary school teachers appointed in Lakhimpur district in 2001. However, the office of the Deputy Inspector of Schools, North Lakhimpur did not issue these 33 of the selected teachers the appointment letters as they refused to pay bribe. Afterwards, the teachers had to go for their training without having their appointment letters issued by the DIS Office, Lakhimpur. During the period of their training, the DIS office appointed other persons against the posts of these 33 teachers of Lakhimpur district. The deprived teachers then moved the Gauhati High Court seeking justice for their plight caused by the DIS office, Lakhimpur. After 15 long years of legal battle, the 33 deprived teachers got justice and were reinstated in their posts by the Gauhati High Court. The High Court order asked the State Education department to regularise the posts of these teachers and pay their salary in arrears amounting Rs 10 lakh per person.
