The Odisha government on Tuesday decided to keep 336 college teachers away from the panel of examiners for the annual for their alleged goof up in evaluation of answer sheets last year, official sources said.
"The higher education department has served show cause notice to these teachers. Only one of the 336 responded to the notice. Therefore, action has been taken against them," said Durga Prasad Behera, additional secretary in the Higher Education department.
