Over 5,000 Madhya Pradesh Teachers Remain Attached to Government Offices
The Story in Brief
More than 5,000 government school teachers in Madhya Pradesh remain attached to government offices despite orders to return them to schools, the Free Press Journal reported. They are posted in the State Secretariat, legislators’ offices, collectors’ and sub-divisional magistrates’ offices and other institutions.
The School Education Department first ordered the recall of 213 teachers and later asked district education officers to identify and recall others. In Bhopal, 47 teachers were relieved, but only 11 joined their schools. Another order relieved 30 employees after attachments were cancelled. The report said resistance and limited interest among senior officials slowed action, while the attachments contributed to staff shortages.
The Indian Opinion
The reported numbers suggest a serious classroom staffing concern, especially where schools already face shortages. At the same time, the available account does not establish that all attachments were improper or driven by favouritism. Authorities have begun recalls, but incomplete implementation raises questions about monitoring and accountability. Clearer information on approvals, duration and reasons would allow a fairer assessment.
