First split

The first time the state president was elected directly by teachers was in 1972. Om Prakash Sharma won and became UPMSS President. Maheshwar Pandey was badly defeated in this election. In this election two waves were blowing i.e. east and west. Sharma was from Meerut district and was supported by western districts. Pandey was from the east and was supported by eastern districts. Kanpur district was major district in schools numbers so Kanpur was balancing and decider. Kanpur openly supported Sharma. As a result Pandey formed a new group within UPMSS known as UPMSS (Pandey Group).

Parliamentary board

Second split

After general election of President of state in 1972, there was not any election. Sharma was continuously the President of UPMSS without a general election. Due to lack of democracy R N Thakurayi formed new group of UPMSS and now it is called Thakurayi Group of UPMSS.

Third split

Due to monopoly of Sharma, in 2010 Raj Bahadur Singh Chandel[3] MLC from Kanpur Teachers Constituency formed another new UPMSS group called UPMSS (Chandel Group).
