Government teachers in Manipur, who hired substitutes on their behalf and those who are irregular, have been warned of taking legal proceedings against them by Federal Students Organisation, Kangleipak (FESOK).
A drive to monitor the irregularities of teachers in government educational institutes was launched recently by setting up a survey team, FESOK advisor Thoithoi said while speaking to the media at the office of FESOK in Kakwa, Imphal West on Monday.

During the inspection, the team observed that a lady graduate teacher in Lamlong Higher Secondary School never turned up at the school since the COVID-19 pandemic though she was getting full facilities of a government teacher.
Asking the teachers to not take their profession for granted, he said legal proceedings will be taken up against those who are pursuing the profession of teachers just for salary.
The advisor also appealed to the state government to directly dismiss those teachers who are irregular and those using substitutes so that job opportunities can be given to those potential youths who are willing to work sincerely and with dedication.
