The assurance given by the Chief Minister of Delhi Ms Sheila Dixit to transfer teachers to a school near their residence is really very sympathetic and we welcome the positive outlook of the dynamic "Young Lady".This statement will really bring hope to those teachers who are traveling 2-3 hours daily to reach their schools facing traffic jams. We had brought this problem in the knowledge of all concerned by publishing our demand on 18th September 2008 on this website which is available downwards with the title "Transfer to nearest school is the main problem of teachers".We are really pleased to hear this statement in a 'Shikshak Sammelan' organised on yesterday in Shah Auditorium by our friends of GSTA.
BUT the well wishes of Govt is always being denied and discouraged by red-tapism of officers and we are suspicious in the implementation of these orders too.
There is no scarciry of funds for Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan and the related deptt should be directed to make multistoried residential flats for teachers inside schools where enough land is available.These flats may be erected under self financing schemes too.Some schools have enough land and these may be converted in Residential Schools for students from other states also. Delhi attracts everyone and every Indian child have right to enjoy facility of Capital City.We should invite students from other neighbouring SAARC countries too for harmony.We must play an important role of "Big Brother" in this region.
But the first and foremost dream is to change our mind set to think well to do well.
That day is still waiting by us when the first foundation stone will be laid down.
