Punjab Teachers Protest for Regularisation and Pay Benefits Amid Police Action

Over 200 teachers from Punjab's Special Cadre Teachers Front protested near the Chandigarh-Mohali border and outside the Punjab School Education Board office in Mohali, demanding full regularisation, pay scale implementation, and financial benefits. Police deployed heavy security and used water cannons to disperse protesters attempting to advance towards Chandigarh, citing law and order concerns. The protests caused traffic disruptions, with teachers alleging forceful suppression despite their claims of peaceful demonstration.
