Teaching job aspirants in Uttar Pradesh will run a social media campaign on August 16, demanding the state government issue a recruitment notification for primary school teachers. The organisers aim to post 10 million messages on X to press for a time-bound appointment process. Vijay Pratap, an aspirant from Prayagraj, said no major primary-level recruitment has occurred in over five years, leaving millions waiting. Adarsh Tiwari, a D.El.Ed holder, said their prime years are being wasted. The Prayagraj-based Sanyukt Pratiyogi Chhatra Hunkar Manch and the Congress party have backed the campaign.
