Dharmanagar, July 05: A large number of students of Baghan Higher Secondary School in Dharmanagar subdivision on Friday blocked the road to stage a protest against the transfer of their teacher.
The incident took place as the students blocked the Premtala-Jherjheri road from Friday morning onwards. According to the agitated students, the Bengali department teacher of their school – Madhumita Raut was transferred to another Radhapur HS School in Dharmanagar.
The students said that they will not accept the transfer of their teacher due to teacher shortage in their school. They said that the transfer of their teacher will land them in trouble in their studies. They however demanded the government to repeal the transfer order for the welfare of the students and the school.
Alarmed by the road blockade, the BDO of Kadamtala block Himanshu Debnath rushed to the spot and interacted with the agitated students. Later, the BDO had assured of retaining the transfer order of their teacher, following which the students withdrew their blockade and cleared the traffic movement.
