Private school teachers call for bandh tomorrow

Private schools across the state may remain without teachers on Wednesday in the wake of a state-wide private school bandh call given by Telangana Private Teachers Forum (TPTF), demanding implementation of GO MS No1, 1994, in private schools and sanction of health cards with accident insurance for the teachers working in private schools.

The forum said that about 12,000 schools, including the ones under Central Board of Secondary



Education, Indian Certificate of Secondary Education and other boards across Telangana, will participate in the protest.

“Almost all the student, teacher and welfare organisations have extended support to our bandh call. Most of the political parties too will be supporting us. From play schools to corporate schools, all schools will remain closed on July 18,” said Shabir Ali, TPTF president.
