Mehboob Mondal, one of the spokespersons of 'Jogyo Sikshak Manch' (Eligible Teachers Forum), told PTI, "We hit the streets to voice the demands of deserving teachers that they should not be penalised for the failure of the School Service Commission (SSC) to differentiate between the deserving and tainted candidates who sat for the recruitment tests in 2016 and got appointment letters."
