A plea has been moved before the High Court of Delhi against the salary deductions being faced by teachers & other staff of some private schools in Delhi amid the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.
The plea, filed by law student Mukul Sharma, is likely to come up for hearing next week.
Sharma, in his plea, sought directions to take appropriate actions against the respondent schools & direct them to provide an interim relief by giving the complete salary to the teachers as well clear all the due arrears.
The plea sought directions to respondents to renew the contract of the teachers & provide the due salaries to them & also provide the full salary to the teachers who are on contract as well.
It said that the plea, if allowed, would benefit the teachers & working staff of all the schools in Delhi as the rule of law is essential for democracy & such brazen violation of law by the respondents is bias to citizens as a whole.
