Punjab Government Schools to Hold Mega PTM Highlighting Welfare Schemes Amid Criticism
Punjab's government schools will hold a Mega Parent-Teacher Meeting on October 9 to discuss student progress and promote welfare schemes like the Mawan Dhiyan Satkar Yojana. Schools are instructed to record and share video testimonials from parent beneficiaries, especially mothers. Teacher organizations have criticized the directive, urging that PTMs focus on students' academic development rather than government scheme promotion. Officials emphasize parental involvement and sharing information on education initiatives during the event.
