Teachers, Non-teaching staff have been accused of cheating, and tampering with OMR sheets due to which they are being asked to discontinue their services.
Kolkata: West Bengal School Service Commission (WBSSC) is set to terminate the services of its teaching and non-teaching staff.
The commission will move ahead with terminating the services of 800 illegally appointed teachers at the secondary in state-run schools across West Bengal, as per its submission before the Calcutta High Court.
According to reports, these teachers will be the ones whose numbers in optical mark recognition (OMR) sheets are different from the ones present in the central server. An investigation by the authorities came to the conclusion that several candidates secured marks as high as 53 despite keeping the sheets blank or answering just a few questions.
Though 900 teachers were on the radar of authorities for cancellation of services, multiple reviews led to the number coming down to 800.
