In light of this, a decision has been made to facilitate the appointment of regular teachers and staff across all such schools," said Rawat. He also added that recruitment will only proceed for sanctioned vacant posts that have been formally revived or restored by the competent authority, thereby preventing any potential administrative hurdles in the future.
"The actual requirements of the schools and their student enrollment figures will be given priority during the recruitment of teachers. Recruitment for teaching positions will be aligned with the number of students, ensuring both an adequate number of teachers and an improvement in the overall quality of education," added the school education minister.
