Teachers’ union objects to Sisodia’s visits to Punjab schools

Hindustan Times  

The Democratic Teachers Front, Punjab, has raised objections to former Delhi MLA Manish Sisodia’s recent visits to various government schools in Punjab accompanied by the state’s education minister and other officials. DTF Punjab president Vikram Dev Singh along with other union leaders expressed concerns over the inspections in districts like Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar, Gurdaspur, and Tarn Taran. The union also criticised the Punjab government for “shifting its focus from formulating its own education policy to following the Delhi education model”. Despite the Punjab government’s previous announcement in September to create a unique education policy, the DTF claims that the state is instead adopting a model that has already faced political criticism in Delhi.
