The Calcutta High Court on Friday directed the CBI to diligently trace and retrieve the original or destroyed servers, discs, or mediums where the scanned OMR sheets of the Teachers’ Eligibility Test for 2014 were stored.

The court also instructed the CBI to seek assistance from expert public or private organisations such as NIC, WIPRO, TCS, INFOSYS, etc., to determine whether the existing servers, hard discs, and computers that belong to M/s. S Basu Roy and Co, to which some work for the TET examination process was allegedly outsourced, and/or the West Bengal Board of Primary Education, contain any digital traces of the scanned original OMR sheets from TET 2014.

Hearing a bunch of petitions alleging irregularities in TET 2014, Justice Rajasekhar Mantha directed the CBI to trace and retrieve with due intensity the location of the original/destroyed servers/discs/medium where the scanned OMR sheets were stored.

The court said this can be achieved through further interrogation of the officials of M/s. S. Basu Roy and Co. as well as any official or employee of WBBPE.

The matter will come up for hearing again on August 23.
