In the wake of the Supreme Court’s order declaring the entire selection process of the West Bengal School Service Commission recruitment null and void, concerned citizens, parents, and education activists are calling for personal accountability and criminal action against all department and government officials involved in the scam.

The apex court found gross violations of law and blatant irregularities in direct contravention of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution, leading to the cancellation of all illegal appointments.

In response, social activist Devdutta Maji’s team is preparing a fresh Public Interest Litigation (PIL) to be filed before the appropriate court, seeking immediate seizure of movable and immovable assets of all government officials involved in the tainted recruitment process, criminal prosecution of those responsible, and urgent interim arrangements to appoint qualified teachers so that students’ learning is not interrupted.

“This is not just a corruption case , but an attack on the future of our children and the integrity of our education system. We demand swift justice and uncompromising action,” he said.
