REET 2021: Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has announced to cancel the Rajasthan Teacher Eligibility Test (REET) level 2 exam after ongoing protest from the opposition party in the state – BJP. He has announced to increase the vacancies from 32000 to 62000. Announcing a major change in the teacher recruitment exam, Gehlot said that now teacher recruitment will be done through two exams. Those who qualify REET will have to appear for another exam.
The older system of having two sets of exams will be reinstated, said the minister. REET will be treated as an eligibility exam and a tier-2 exam will be held for those who qualify for the exam. Details in this regard are not yet out and an expert committee will decide on revised guidelines. It will be ensured that the exam process is fair, transparent, and cheating-free said Rajasthan CM.
