The Democratic Teachers Front (DTF) staged a protest demonstration outside the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) building in Phase 8 and demanded that all schools be opened in a phased manner and the collection of false data on teachers to show 100% online participation in the Punjab Achievement Survey (PAS) be stopped.

Teachers cordoned off the Education Secretary’s office for two hours and closed both the gates. It was announced that effigies of the Chief Minister, Education Minister and Education Secretary would be burnt at the tehsil-level across the state from December 1 to 3.

Addressing teachers on the occasion, front state president Davinder Singh Poonia and general secretary Jaswinder Singh said the decision to reduce pay grades and implement the central scale for new recruits in the Education Department should be revoked.
