The crackdown continues on candidates who secured appointments in the 69,000 teacher recruitment process using forged documents. District-level dismissals are ongoing, with authorities verifying credentials post-appointment. Protesting candidates, particularly from reserved categories, have now demanded action against departmental officials accused of facilitating these irregularities.

Amrendra Patel, leading the protest, stated that the number of ineligible candidates is significant and accused the education department of shielding them.

He urged the government to not only dismiss fraudulent candidates but also hold complicit officers accountable.

The protests reflect growing dissatisfaction with how the recruitment process was monitored, with allegations of systemic corruption.
