Raipur 4 July 2025: The rationalization process has yielded better results in the direction of strengthening and balancing the education system of the state. Before rationalization, a total of 453 schools in the state were teacherless. After rationalization, not a single school is teacherless. Similarly, after rationalization, out of 5936 single teacher schools in the state, teachers have been posted in 4728 schools, which is a meaningful step towards improving the education system, which will undoubtedly improve the education system in those schools and the students studying will get the benefit of quality education.
Due to shortage of teachers in some districts of Bastar and Surguja divisions, about 1208 schools have remained single teacher. In the near future, the shortage of teachers will be met in schools through promotion of Principal Pathak and Lecturer and direct recruitment of about 5000 teachers, so that no school will remain single teacher and teachers will be met in other schools also where there is a shortage of teachers. The rationalization process has been done under the provisions of the Right to Education Act-2009 and National Education Policy-2020. The 2008 setup at the primary and pre-secondary level is no longer relevant. Disciplinary action has been taken against those officers and employees who were found involved in any kind of irregularity.
