The Bombay High Court has directed the Maharashtra state government to ensure strict compliance with its Pavitra Portal for teacher recruitment, mandating a reliable system for all educational institutions.

The decision followed a case where a group of teachers and the Sudhagad Education Society contested the rejection of their appointments due to alleged private recruitments bypassing the portal.

The court insisted on the urgent need for a fool-proof Standard Operating Procedure and accountability for educational officers to prevent unauthorized hiring practices.
