Jaipur, Feb 23 (NationPress) A spirited political confrontation took place in the Rajasthan Assembly on Monday during Question Hour. State Education Minister Madan Dilawar leveled accusations of corruption against the Congress party concerning teacher transfers while addressing a question regarding the establishment of science faculties in government schools.

Instead of delivering factual information about science faculties and teacher appointments, Minister Dilawar opted for a political offensive against the Congress, causing protests and significant disruption in the House.

"We are actively filling vacant positions across all schools and are preparing to hire teachers who will retire within the next two years," the Minister asserted.

He claimed that during the prior Congress-led administration, numerous English-medium schools were ostensibly created on paper without any actual teacher appointments in the state.

"Signage was displayed, but no actual positions were established. Fifty thousand faculties were created without teachers. The Congress has devastated education and jeopardized the future of children in Rajasthan," he stated.

Assembly Speaker Vasudev Devnani intervened, urging Minister Dilawar to remain focused on the question at hand.

Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Tikaram Jully called for specific statistics regarding the appointment of science teachers in government schools, insisting, "It is widely recognized who caused this chaos. How many science faculties has your (BJP-led state government) opened in the past two years? How many positions have been filled? Provide an answer to that."

Minister Dilawar then alleged corruption in the teacher transfer process in Rajasthan, questioning former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, "Did your (former Congress administration's) Education Minister accept bribes for teacher transfers or not?"

He alleged that teachers had reported that former Education Minister Govind Singh Dotasra had solicited payments for their transfers.

LoP Jully accused Minister Dilawar of misleading the Assembly, asserting, "The Education Minister (Madan Dilawar) is delivering a political address. Kindly respond directly to the specific question regarding science faculties."

After further discussions, Minister Dilawar announced that 3,880 teaching positions were filled in one phase and 970 in another, which led to continued unrest in the House.

A heated exchange occurred in the Rajasthan Assembly during Question Hour on Monday when Education Minister Madan Dilawar's response to inquiries about the establishment of science faculties in government schools and teacher availability caused an uproar in the House.

Instead of providing statistical information on the questions raised, the Minister launched a political assault on the Congress, leading to protests and strong reactions from the opposition.

Minister Dilawar affirmed that the state government is working to fill vacant positions in all schools and planning to recruit teachers who are set to retire in the next two years.

He alleged that during the previous Congress-led government, numerous English-medium schools were opened merely on paper, with signage erected but no teaching positions established.
