"In MCD schools, as many as 7,068 posts of teachers of various categories are lying vacant," Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Mullappally Ramachandran told Lok Sabha in a written reply to a query.
On appointment of guest teachers in the civic bodies, the minister told of no such engagements in the MCD schools during last three years and the current year. "No guest teachers have been appointed in MCD schools. However, 4,279 teachers have been engaged on contractual basis against the vacant posts," he said.
