Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 15793 of 2007 Smt. Raj Kumari Chauhan v. State of U.P. and others Hon'ble V.K. Shukla, J. decided on 23.03.2007

“Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag, till date has not taken any recognition as is envisaged under Section 14 of the National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993, as such Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag is not recognized institution within the meaning of section 14 of the National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993, and as such, has no authority, whatsoever, to impart any instruction or offer course or training in the field of teachers education and hold any examination, accordingly.
Consequently, degree of "Shiksha Visharad" issued by Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag is of no consequence and no credibility could be attached to the same. Thus, petitioner is ineligible candidate so as to appoint as teacher under three-language formula scheme, as she has obtained training qualification from Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag, which is an unrecognized institution, as such no direction can be issued on her prayer.
Consequently, writ petition lacks substance and the same is dismissed. “

Civil Misc. Writ Petition No.56687 of 2008 Ajeet Kumar Verma Versus State of U.P. and others. Hon'ble V.K. Shukla,J. Dt. 05.11.2008

National Council for Teacher Education established under the National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993 is competent to lay down norms and guidelines for achieving the planned and coordinated development of teachers' education and for regulating and maintaining proper norms and standards in the teachers' education and training. The validity of National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993 had been subject matter of challenge before Hon'ble Apex Court in case of Union of India v. Shah Goverdhan L. Kalra Teachers College (2002) 8 SCC 228 and the validity of the same has been upheld.

Sub-Section (4) of Section 17 of National Council for Teacher Education Act, 1993 (sic) provides that where an institution has offered a course or training in teacher education without there being any recognition, said teachers training is not to be treated as a valid qualification for purposes of employment under the Central Government, any State Government or University, or in any school, College or other educational body aided by the Central Government or any State Government.

Petitioner has failed to substantiate before this Court that Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag, and the instructions like "Shiksha Visharad" imparted by it, have ever been recognised by National Council for Teachers' Education, as such no credibility could be attached to the said certificate and petitioner, who is equipped with un-recognized training qualification, qua him no relief could be accorded.

{In support of his contention, learned Standing Counsel has relied on the judgment of Shyam Veer Singh vs. State of U.P. and others [2006 (62) ALR 98], paragraph 10. Relevant portion of the judgment reads as under: -
