Over 100 schools sans teachers in Delhi’s backyard
The Hindu
Haryana’s Nuh is part of National Capital Region
As many as 111 schools in Nuh district of Haryana do not have a single teacher. The district is only about 100 km away from Delhi.
The Government Girls’ Middle School in Nuh’s Devla Nangli, with around 100 students, has never had a teacher over the past decade, except for a few months in between when a science teacher was appointed. But she soon got transferred. The headmaster at the primary school on the same campus has asked his staff to teach the girls in their free time. The staff members, though qualified to teach only the primary classes, also teach the students at the senior secondary school, also on the same campus, but with only one trained graduate teacher for physical education.
Nuh is a Meo Muslim-dominated area that not only just borders the State’s financial capital and IT hub of Gurugram, but also falls in the National Capital Region.
