There are two tables using the same source. These tables are using source binding of kendo templates. At present the source for both these tables are employees
. Both these tables are displaying the same data.
Now, we need to modify it to show only check-box selected records in the result table. Also, when user clicks on the delete button on the result table, the check-box should be un-selected in the section table.
What modification do we need to do to make it work in MVVM
?

First things first.
If you remove the object from the viewModel when you delete it, it will be removed from your source table as well. You would need two arrays to handle this if you wanted it to be the way you describe. But based on the first part of your question, I thought I would post a solution.
