CHANDIGARH: In a new turnout, the Punjab government which had earlier asked the EGS teachers to clear Teacher Eligibility Test(TET) as per the guidelines of National Educational Policy asked the Centre on Tuesday to relax the criterion of TET for EGS teachers as a onetime measure.
Education minister, Sewa Singh Sekhwan quoting Parkash Singh Badal said that the Chief minister was fully sympathetic towards the problems of the teachers but due to the laws of the central government, Badal is not able to help them. He further added that Badal had assured the teachers that the state government will try its best to facilitate the recruitment of teachers by seeking a onetime relaxation from the centre government.
On the other hand, the teachers union again blocked the Malout Chandigarh national highway (NH-15) at Fakkarsar Thehri village near Gidderbaha on Tuesday. Meanwhile, two agitating teachers namely, Kulvir Singh and Nachattar Singh tried to jump into the Rajasthan feeder canal here.
