Shillong, May 18:The Meghalaya Teachers Eligibility Test (MTET) originally schedule for May 29 has been postponed. No new date has been set.
The decision comes in response to appeals by teachers facing conflicts due to the ongoing mandatory national duties.
Many teachers are currently split between their classroom responsibilities and active assignments for the ongoing Census enumeration and the upcoming duty for the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.
Announcing the postponement of the MTET examination at a public function held at Damas in North Garo Hills today, Chief Minister Conrad Sangma informed that recently, a delegation of teachers apprised him of the difficulties in preparing for the MTET as they have to divide their time for teaching as well as Census and SIR assignments.
“The teachers are worried and in a dilemma, given their concurrent assiggments. Considering their concerns, I would like to inform that the MTET examination stands postponed,” Sangma said.
“Teachers need not worry. We will evaluate the overall situation and reschedule a proper and suitable date to ensure they have adequate preparation time,” he added.
