They wanted teacher posted permanently to lower primary school
Classes at the Government Lower Primary School at Dubaratatti in Hosanagar taluk of Shivamogga district began with a protest on Monday. The parents and residents of the village demanded that a teacher be posted to the school and they succeeded in getting an order to this effect by evening.
The school has a total strength of 22 students. When students turned up at the school in the morning, there were no teachers to welcome them. Mudugoppa Gram Panchayat president Karunakara Shetty and others had gathered to distribute sweets to students to mark the occasion. However, they were all disappointed as there were no teachers to welcome students.
The parents began the dharna on the spot demanding that a teacher be posted to the school immediately.
