What is the meaning of this decision?
Earlier, the validity of any TET certificate was 7 years. That is, when the candidate passed that examination, he was only qualified for a teacher’s job in a government school for 7 years. But now NCTE has decided that the certificates of all teacher eligibility tests will be valid for life.

That is, now the candidates who will succeed in a TET will always be eligible to become government teachers. CTET TET Validity Extended
