Professors, Associate Professors & Lecturers working as faculty in Pulwama’s Coaching Centres

PULWAMA — Dozens of coaching centres are running in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district with the government Professors, Associate Professors, Lecturers and teachers of higher education working as faculty there. Although some of these coaching centres are even registered with the Education Department, they are involved in gross violation of the government guidelines.

These coaching centres include BCI, Shah-i-Hamdan, FCI, Oriental and Newton.

It is pertinent to mention that the School Education Department imposed a complete ban on government school teachers from taking classes at private coaching institutes.

The move comes in the wake of the implementation of the Right to Education (RTE) Act – 2009 in J&K. The RTE Act 2009 became applicable in J&K in October 2019 following the abrogation of Article 370 of the Indian Constitution by the Government of India.

When contacted, CEO Pulwama said, “We have issued the Circular and written to ADC Pulwama for action.”
