Teachers from the 2016 state level selection test panel return amid confusion over final list

Kolkata: Teachers from the 2016 state-level selection test panel started returning to school as clear instructions from the school education department were sent to the schools, along with the list of 'untainted' teachers' names. However, there is still some confusion in the list, as several names, including that of Chinmoy Mandal, a prominent face of the movement, is missing from it.
The state school education department has asked school heads to send a detailed report of how many teachers from the 2016 panel are in the respective schools. A format was sent to the district inspectors, asking them to fill in the name of the teacher, designation, SSC recommendation, appointment letter, employee code, and any transfers made during this period, which must be mentioned with details. The same report was requested for the staffers as well.
Several untainted teachers who protested outside the School Service Commission office returned to school from Thursday after the district-wise list was published by the education department. Ishani Kundu, a life science teacher at a North 24 Parganas school, said, "Being a teacher, I love to take classes and interact with students, but the situation brought us to the street. I spent a wonderful moment at the school today, but unfortunately, the relief is only for a few months now. However, the condition of Group C and D staffers is very painful. I hope the entire issue is resolved soon."
School heads expressed that they are quite relieved after seeing teachers join duties. Dumdum Aurobindo High School's Headmaster, Ashim Kumar Nanda, said, "Three teachers—one for political science and two for commerce—are from the 2016 SLST panel. Finally, they joined today. We have the only political science teacher in class XI-XII. The commerce department was running with only one teacher when the number of students was quite large."

Krishnachandrapur High School in South 24 Parganas has eight teachers from the 2016 panel, and many of them joined the school. School Headmaster Chandan Maiti said, "All the eight names are there in the list, but an extra name was included, which is strange. Not only in our school but in many schools where there is such confusion in the list, we want this to be resolved immediately."
However, there is still a section that did not return to schools and is found at the protest site. Suman Biswas, a protesting teacher, said, "Major demands of uploading the mirror images of the OMR sheets are yet to be fulfilled. I am not satisfied with the list, as we heard a lot of anomalies in the list that need to be resolved soon." MSID:: 120588570 413 |

Kulgam op being wound up: Officials

SRINAGAR: The 11-day-long anti-terror operation in the forests of south Kashmir's Kulgam district was being wound up, with no contact having been established with terrorists in the past 48 hours, officials said Tuesday. 'There has been no exchange of fire since Saturday,' a senior Army official confirmed. A senior police official said, 'The operation has now entered a low-key, subdued phase. We cannot, however, say that it has been called off entirely.' Top military commanders and police officers had been monitoring the operation. This was one of the longest anti-terror operations in recent years. Two soldiers from the Army's elite counter-insurgency unit — Lance Naik Pritpal Singh and Sepoy Harminder Singh, both from Punjab — fell to terrorists' bullets; one local terrorist was shot dead, and 10 security personnel were injured in the operation. The encounter broke out on August 1 in Akhal Khulsan forests when a joint team of security forces was conducting a cordon-and-search operation based on intelligence inputs about the presence of three to five ultras in the area. The combing party came under fire, triggering a gunfight in which one local terrorist was killed. The other suspects managed to escape, taking advantage of the thick forests and deep ravines, prompting one of the largest searches in the area, with security forces deploying drones for aerial surveillance. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The 5 Books Warren Buffett Recommends You To Read in 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo During the operation, intermittent firing and blasts were heard.

After the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, security forces have so far killed 14 terrorists in Kashmir this year, including three top Lashkar-e-Taiba operatives linked to the Pahalgam attack who were shot dead in Srinagar on July 28.

Pakistan welcomes US designation of BLA, Majeed Brigade as terrorist entities

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Tuesday hailed the US decision to designate the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and its suicide wing, the Majeed Brigade, as Foreign Terrorist Organisations (FTOs), a move seen as reinforcing Islamabad's own counterterrorism efforts and signalling renewed security alignment between the two countries. The US state department had announced the designation on Monday, adding the Majeed Brigade as an alias of the BLA and expanding sanctions, travel bans, and legal penalties for supporters. The decision imposes sweeping sanctions and is seen as underscoring a rare moment of US-Pakistan security alignment, arriving just as army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir engages in high-level talks in Washington. Pakistan's foreign office said it outlawed the BLA in 2006 and banned the Majeed Brigade on July 18, 2024. Both have been blamed for 'heinous' acts, including the March 2025 Jaffar Express hijacking, which killed more than 30 people, and the Khuzdar bus bombing, which claimed dozens of civilian lives. The US move came as Munir made his second high-level visit to Washington in two months, sparking speculation over expanded cooperation on counterterrorism, intelligence sharing, and regional stability. Security analysts say the designation reflects converging US-Pakistan interests in Balochistan, a province rich in minerals and home to the strategic Gwadar port. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Seniors are going crazy for these comfy, stylish, easy-on shoes Ultra-Comfortable Shoes Undo The BLA and Majeed Brigade have repeatedly targeted Chinese nationals, infrastructure, and projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) in an attempt to derail investment and development. Pakistan has intensified military operations in Balochistan in recent months, killing more than 50 suspected militants linked to BLA splinter groups in Zhob, Kech, and Gwadar. Officials believe US backing will help choke off funding, disrupt safe havens, and counter online propaganda. For Islamabad, the US designation is more than a symbolic victory, it is a strategic opportunity to align international action with domestic priorities in its decades-long battle against insurgency.
