What Is The Teachers' Posting Issue
Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government announced on June 27 regarding the recruitment of school teachers. As per the announcement, the state government was removing the mandatory domicile policy requirement from the recruitment process of school teachers. This drew flak from the BJP with senior BJP leader and former deputy chief minister Sushil Kumar Modi demanding its immediate withdrawal.
