Chandigarh, June 10

The Ministry of Education (MoE) has directed the UT Education Department to fill vacant posts of teacher and take up rationalisation to ensure availability of educators at all levels.

There are 996 vacant posts in elementary and 274 vacant posts in government secondary schools, which the Centre has asked to be filled on priority.

The UT Education Department has submitted that a proposal to fill 601 posts of elementary teachers was already approved by the Administration and details were being finalised with the recruitment agency – the NITTTR. The proposal to fill 250 posts of trained graduate teachers has been sent to the Department of Personnel for approval.

There are two vacant posts of head teacher in government secondary schools and 413 posts of subject teacher, which should be filled on priority.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
