Ranchi, Nov 28 (SocialNews.XYZ) The Supreme Court has summoned the Jharkhand Chief Secretary while hearing a contempt petition in a matter related to high school teachers appointment in the state.
The top court has asked him to be physically present on December 2 to explain the reason behind state government violating its judgement.
The matter was heard on Monday by the bench of Justice M.R. Shah.
In its previous hearing, the apex court issued a notice to the government and ordered for status quo to be restored in the appointment of high school teachers.
