The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has released an important update for female candidates who applied for the Bihar State Teacher Eligibility Test (STET) 2025. The board found that some female candidates had entered their husband’s name instead of their father’s name in the application form. To fix this, BSEB has extended the deadline for making these corrections.
Female candidates now have until December 7 to correct their father's name on the application form. The previous deadline was December 3. This extension provides a final chance for candidates to ensure all personal details are correct. Accurate information is very important for all official government applications and future certificates.
What is Bihar STET?
The Bihar STET is a crucial examination for individuals aspiring to become teachers in Bihar’s government schools. This test makes candidates eligible to apply for teaching positions in primary and secondary schools across the state. As it is a government exam, strict rules apply regarding the accuracy of all information provided in the application forms.
Why is Correct Name Detail Important?
For most official documents in India, especially educational and employment records, the father's name is a standard identifier. It helps verify a candidate's identity and background. By requesting this correction, BSEB ensures that all application forms comply with standard government record-keeping practices. This helps prevent any confusion or issues during document verification for eligibility and job placements later on.
Key Correction Dates for Bihar STET 2025
Here are the important dates for female candidates to note for making these corrections:
| Original Last Date for Correction | December 3 |
| Extended Last Date for Correction | December 7 |
Candidates must make these changes online before the new deadline. No further extensions are expected.
