A political dispute has emerged in Delhi over a Directorate of Education order concerning stray dogs near schools. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) alleges teachers are being assigned to count and manage stray dogs, accusing the BJP-led government of insulting educators and neglecting education. The Delhi government, through Education Minister Ashish Sood, denies these claims, stating the order mandates schools appoint nodal officers to handle stray dog issues in compliance with a Supreme Court directive, not to assign counting duties to teachers. AAP leaders have presented the order as evidence, while the government challenges them to produce specific directives for teachers performing such tasks.
