Meanwhile, the education of thousands of students enrolled in government schools has got affected due to the training programme for teachers ahead of the annual Board examinations.
According to our correspondent, the teachers are happy with the training programme ordered by the government but at the same time are worried about the future of students who have to appear in the annual Board examinations, likely in this month.
Earlier, the government had said that the JKBOSE annual examination for the students of Class 10th and Class 12th will start from October 15, 2017.
The training programme as per the teachers has put the career of students at stake, saying that a few days are left for the examination but the government is sending teachers for the training programme which will certainly affect the studies of students.
