Petitioners have obtained Baby Teachers Training Certificate from Gandhi Hindi Vidyapith, Prayag, Uttar Pradesh (Sharat) Hindi University. The case is that in the light of advertisement they had applied and a provisional list was published, though their names find place in the provisional merit list, but their names were omitted in the final merit list without any legal and valid reasons. The Baby Teachers Training is not a recognized as valid training degree by the State Govt. It is also not considered equivalent training certificate needed for appointment of teachers in Elementary Schools. The issue regarding equivalence and recognition of Baby Teachers Training Certificate from Gandhi Hindi Vidyapith, Prayag, Uttar Pradesh has been considered by the Division Bench in L.P.A. No. 387 of 2009 and it has been held that the Baby Teachers Training Certificate cannot an - 3 - equivalent certificate for appointment as Assistant Trained Teachers in Primary and Secondary Schools. Since the issue has already been decided by the Division Bench and the State Govt., who is the employer, has also not recognized the degree for appointment as trained teachers, this application is dismissed.
