Assurance on IIEST director

The chairperson of IIEST Shibpur s board of governors said she had passed on the IIEST teachers concerns about the prolonged absence of a full-term director to the Union education ministry and the appointment of a regular director was expected in March. Tejaswini Ananth Kumar said the appointment of a fullterm director was crucial as recruitment of teachers was stuck and the institute was suffering. The teachers wrote to her last Thursday that the absence of a regular director since May 2023 had led to a stalemate on the campus.

We want to end impasse, says Bratya

Education minister Bratya Basu on Monday said the government is consulting the state’s advocate-general to resolve the stalemate over the recruitment of teachers in government-aided schools. The minister met teaching job aspirants who have been protesting on the Maidan for over 1,000 days alleging irregularities in recruitments. Some of the protesters met the minister at Bikash Bhavan, the headquarters of the education department.
