The Bihar government has announced plans to terminate the contracts of more than 3,000 teachers who were employed after submitting forged academic certificates.
The Bihar government has revealed that a large number of teachers hired in recent years were found to possess falsified qualifications.
According to officials, the recruitment drive that began in 2019 led to the employment of over 3,000 teachers whose degrees were later discovered to be forged.
The Education Department has initiated a verification process and will proceed with dismissal after completing investigations.
The move is part of a broader effort to curb corruption and ensure quality in the state's public schools.
