Karnah, Aug 8:- The Sub divisional Magistrate (SDM) Karnah has tightened its noose against teachers for using their mobile phones in schools during academic hours
SDM has issued a circular mandating that all teaching faculty in educational institutions within the Karnah Sub Division keep their mobile phones switched off during academic hours. The directive applies to Higher Secondary Schools, High Schools, Middle, and Primary Schools in Karnah Sub Division.
The order underscores the importance of maintaining a focused and uninterrupted learning environment, free from the distractions of mobile devices. It specifically directs Heads of Institutions (HOIs) to enforce this order strictly, ensuring that faculty members comply by keeping their phones off during school hours. However, the HOIs are permitted to keep their phones switched on to receive essential communications when required.
The circular warns of strict action against any teaching staff found violating the directive, with the Zonal Education Officer (ZEO) Tanghdar, along with Cluster Heads, tasked with ensuring the order’s compliance in both letter and spirit.
