DHAKA, Feb 6, 2025 (BSS) - The High Court (HC) today cancelled the process to 
recruit 6,531 candidates as assistant teachers at government primary schools 
in Dhaka and Chattogram divisions.
 
A High Court division bench of Justice Fatema Najib and Justice Sikder 
Mahmudur Razi pronounced the judgment, declaring absolute a rule issued 
earlier in this regard.
 
"The High Court in its judgment asked authorities concerned to follow 
Appellate Division's latest verdict on quota and publish recruitment results 
afresh," said Deputy Attorney General Akhter Hossain Md Abdul Wahab.
 
Thirty candidates filed a writ challenging the decision to publish lists of 
successful candidates, accusing authorities of following a quota system in 
the recruitment of candidates from Dhaka and Chattogram divisions in the 
third phase. The High Court, after holding a hearing on the matter, issued 
the rule and stayed the recruitment process for six months.
  
The court today came up with the judgment, declaring absolute that rule.
