Patna (Bihar) [India], June 15 : Bihar government on Tuesday decided not to conduct the Secondary Teachers Eligibility Test (STET) Exam 2022 with immediate effect.
In this regard, the Bihar Primary Education Director in a letter to Bihar School Examination Committee said the Centre is regularly conducting the CTET exams, so the department has decided not to conduct the STET exam in 2022.
Notably, the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) is conducted every year by the Centre. Hence, the Bihar government felt that there is no need of conducting the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) separately from the state government.
