After withdrawing recognition to nearly 1,000 teacher education institutions (TEIs) across the country, the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) has asked them to close operations. Another 3,000 institutions offering bachelor in education (BEd) and diploma in education (DEd) courses are under the scanner.
A senior official at the ministry of human resource development said notices will be served to the other institutions soon.
There are around 16,000 TEIs running under NCTE, an autonomous regulatory authority under the HRD ministry, which had asked the institutions to disclose data about their operations through affidavit last year.
Despite extending the deadline to December 31, 2016, only 7,000-odd colleges submitted the data. The Council further extended the deadline by six months, but many institutions failed to submit the affidavit. Many failed to substantiate their claims during the inquiry process.
"The whole exercise is to integrate the databases we have and make it transparent so that when the institutions come for recognition and accreditation, we can easily validate the claims during inspection. However, despite repeated reminders and extensions, many institutions didn't disclose their details," said the official.
