Two Congress MLAs — Geeta Bhukkal from Jhajjar and Kuldeep Vatsa from Badli — have resisted the move of shifting Prarambh, a state institute of advanced studies in teachers’ education, being run at a rented building on the premises of Model School in Jhajjar city even after seven years of its establishment.

Threaten agitation

  • Both legislators have threatened to launch an agitation if the institute is shifted to DIET/SCERT Haryana in Gurugram

Both the MLAs have threatened to launch agitation campaign if the institute is shifted to DIET/SCERT Haryana in Gurugram. A delegation of advocates also submitted a memorandum to the DC against the move on Monday.

“The institute was established by the then Congress government in 2013. Thereafter, the BJP government came into power in the state in 2014. Hence, it was the responsibility of the BJP government to construct buildings and provide other infrastructure to the institute but it did nothing in the past six years,” said Bhukkal.

Notably, the Directorate of School Education has recently constituted a six-member committee to check the feasibility with regard to the infrastructure viz class rooms, office rooms and hostel etc for shifting of Prarambh.
