New Delhi: Around two-dozen people staged a protest outside the Delhi Assembly on Wednesday against the Bill that seeks to regularise guest teachers. The Bill was passed during the one-day special session of the Delhi Assembly, convened by the Aam Aadmi Party government on Wednesday. The Bill, which was approved by the Delhi Cabinet last week, seeks to regularise 15,000 guest teachers in Delhi government schools.

The protesters, who claimed to be aspirants, demanded holding of a competitive exam for all aspirants and not to give special treatment to guest teachers. 

They said that injustice was being done to them by giving preference to guest teachers.

One of the protesters Amit Kumar, 39, said: “This is my last chance and if they pass the Bill, then I won’t get a chance.”
