No stopping school reopening confusion: Will RT-PCR be valid next mnth, ask teachers
Nagpur: The decision taken by authorities on Wednesday to defer school reopening in rural Nagpur till December 13th has led to multiple queries being raised by teacher associations. The questioning of the validity of RT-PCR tests, expenditure on sanitization, allegations of non-transparent functioning of the department, are the issues being discussed among academic groups.
Ashok Gavhankar, general secretary of Vidarbha Junior College Teachers Association (VJUCTA) said, “From November 17, our teachers have been lining up at the testing centres to get the RT-PCR tests done. This was all being done with the proposed reopening of schools on November 23 in mind. First the Nagpur Municipal Corporation deferred it for city schools and now the district collector has also pushed it ahead. But tests are continuing with no clarity on whether or not it will be valid later.”
