Teachers employed in Kendriya Vidyalaya stranded in lockdown - Times of India

PRAYAGRAJ: Prayagraj: A large number of teachers working in 1,200-odd Kendriya Vidyalayas across the country are stuck away from their homes at the place of their posting. These teachers face the problem of how to reach their homes after as KVs are set to close for 50-day summer vacation.

While in some regions like Chennai, the schools have already been closed since May 3, in most cities of north India, schools are closing from May 11. KV teacher association has also written to the HRD and the PMO to intervene and help teachers reach back to their hometowns.

“Owing to its pan-India presence and transfer policy under central government rules, the teachers of KV’s are posted or employed in any of the 1200 odd schools of the country or for that matter even the three KV’s located in Kathmandu, Moscow and Tehran, and now that the schools will be closed for summer vacation, the teacher’s are in quandary”, said principal of KV IIIT Jhalwa, Vijeyesh Pandey.

On the same issue, all Indian KV teacher association has written to the commissioner KV Sangthan, requesting him to look into the matter.

“We have requested the commissioner to kindly issue a general instruction to all principals to sanction the station leave permission through online to all those teachers who have obtained pass to travel to their hometown from the concerned local administration owing to the rules and directions from the government so that the teachers, who are away from their families from months can reunite during the present stressful times”, said M B Agarwal, general secretary of the association.

Infact, taking the initiative the deputy commissioner (DC) of Hyderabad region, Sai Ranga Rao has been in contact with the local administration of 72 schools of his region, spread in the state of Andra Pradesh and Telangana. “Around 200 teachers of the schools under the region are from other districts and we have talked to local police officials and ensured that these teachers get travel passes in time and without hassle so that they reach to their destinations safe and sound” said Rao, while talking to TOI.

TOI also spoke to many teachers posted at several cities of the country and heard their plight.

“I am living here in Chennai along with my two daughters whereas my husband is in eastern UP, the kids have been waiting for the long holidays and had booked the flight tickets four months back, but here we are stuck, neither he can come to take us nor we have any facility like ‘Teacher’s special train’ taking us back to our state”, said one of the teacher of Chennai region. In the same school, there are stranded teachers who are from cities like Prayagraj and Lucknow.

Likewise, there are teachers in foreign land too, stuck with no international flight in near future.
