Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) had flayed State government’s move to recommend a name of listen criminal in the teachers list who are to be felicitated by the President.
Condemning the move of the SP government here on Saturday evening, Manoj Mishra, spokesman of the BJP’s state unit said that the government had recommended the name of Jabar Singh Yadav, in the teachers list, who were supposed to be honoured by the President of India. Mishra claimed that posted in Saifai, teacher Jabar Singh Yadav was having several criminal cases against his name which including that of attempt to murder, SC & ST Act etc. He said that even the said teacher was terminated for his involvement in criminal cases. However, he was later reinstated but was still involved in several controversies.
Mishra further said that recommending name of such teacher for Presidents Award not just showed that how the criminals were given patronage under the present Samajwadi Party government but it also bring bad name for the entire teaching fraternity. Mishra, claimed that the dedication of the above teacher towards the education can be gauged by the fact that the school in which he was a teacher, only 16 children were students amongst four teachers. BJP spokesman said that the government should take immediate step to stop such teachers from being felicitated by the President.
