Today marks a crucial day in the ongoing principal promotion case in Chhattisgarh. The case, WPS 3997/2025 — Narayan Prakash Tiwari vs. Chhattisgarh Government, is being heard in the Bilaspur High Court. Originally scheduled for this morning before Justice Ravindra Kumar Agarwal, the hearing was postponed due to the petitioner’s counsel’s health. Alok Bakshi and Rahul Jha, representing the Principal Promotion Forum, were present and requested a rehearing. Justice Agarwal has scheduled the case for final disposal at 4 PM today. The case, which was originally 104th on the list, was moved to the fifth position through concerted efforts, signaling a potential resolution. The Chhattisgarh Principal Promotion Forum’s convener, Anil Shukla, expressed that a favorable decision would enable the government to proceed with principal appointments. This would significantly impact numerous senior lecturers who have been waiting for promotions. The petition deals with controversies and rule interpretations affecting the principal promotion process, which has been stalled for some time. The 4 PM hearing could pave the way for principal promotions, thereby influencing the state’s education system.
