    Court Decision Summary The High Court of Orissa dismissed the writ petition of retired teacher Santanu Kumar Dehury, who sought continuation as a Guest Teacher until March 31, 2026. The court held that since a regular TGT (CBZ) Assistant Teacher has been appointed at the school, the petitioner's further continuance as a guest teacher at the same school is not necessary. However, the court directed the state to consider utilizing his services in future if needed and granted him liberty to approach the District Education Officer for payment of arrear dues within six weeks, to be evaluated per applicable guidelines.
