Rajya Sabha MP Kapil Sibal on April 28 called for putting an end to the phenomenon of having ad hoc teachers and said the education profession should not be devalued.
His assertion came in the wake of the alleged suicide by a 33-year-old Delhi University ad hoc teacher who was recently removed from the job at the Hindu College.
In a tweet, Mr. Sibal said, "Suicide by: Former ad hoc teacher. New Education Policy? Is this the vision?" "Ad hoc teachers – An all India phenomenon, put an end to this. Don't devalue teaching profession. Don't devalue education," said the former Human Resource Development Minister, now known as the Education Minister.
