The Central Board of Secondary Education has started inviting online application for the conduct of the 11th edition of Central Teacher Eligibility Test, 2018.

The test will be conducted in 20 languages in 92 cities across the country. Details of the exam will be available on the website www.ctet.nic.in from August 1, 2018 i.e. tomorrow.

The last date to submit the online application is on August 27, and the feel can be paid up to August 30 before 3.30 pm.

In June this year, Human Resources Development Minister Prakash Javedkar clarified that the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) would be conducted in 20 languages, as it was earlier, after various political parties in Tamil Nadu condemned the BJP-led NDA government at the Centre on the reports of the CBSE decision to remove Tamil and 16 other languages from the list of options for the Test.

"The CTET examination will be conducted in all Indian languages as was being conducted earlier. I have already directed the CBSE to conduct the examination in all the 20 languages," Javadekar said in a tweet.

Earlier, DMK leader and Rajya Sabha MP Kanimozhi warned the Centre of a nationwide struggle over its decision to drop Tamil and 16 other regional languages from the choice of the CTET. "The decision to drop Tamil & 16 other regional languages from Central Teacher Eligibility Test is highly condemnable and strikes at the root of federalism. Students of CBSE whose mother tongue is Tamil will be put to a great disadvantage without teachers. Students are forced to study Hindi & Sanskrit instead of their mother tongue. This will lead to another language struggle throughout the country. This is another of BJPs efforts to make a Hindi-Hindu Hindustan," she wrote in a tweet.
