Delhi Govt School Teachers to Receive Leave and Remuneration for Election Duty
Delhi government school teachers serving as booth-level officers (BLOs) during holidays or vacations will receive special earned, compensatory, or earned leave, according to a Directorate of Education circular. This follows requests from teachers' associations and communications from Delhi's chief electoral officer and the Election Commission. BLOs receive an annual remuneration of Rs 12,000, supervisors Rs 18,000, plus a Rs 2,000 incentive for special election-related work. The Delhi High Court has also urged the Election Commission to avoid overburdening teachers with election duties.
