Those who clear the PSTET will be eligible to apply for the job of a teacher.

PSTET was earlier scheduled to be held on December 15, which was postponed for January 5 and then rescheduled for January 19. The second delay was caused due to non-randomised allotment of roll numbers. As per rules, roll numbers are generated randomly by the board to provide an unbiased seating arrangement. In the official notice, the board said that in an inquiry, “it was found that several roll numbers were allotted in the normal sequence which can be an indication of malpractice”.
