Teachers hold protest against transfer policy in MCD schools
Teachers in Delhi held a protest against the Municipal Corporation of Delhi’s transfer policy, which calculates teacher requirements based on attendance rather than the total number of admissions. The teachers demanded that surplus teachers not be transferred and that the actual vacancy position of teachers be shown on the transfer portal. They also called for cashless medical facilities and payment of dues and salaries. The protest resulted in the online transfer portal being put on hold, and a meeting with the education minister and director of education being scheduled.
