The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has strongly criticized the Democratic Teachers’ Front for opposing crucial education reforms aimed at improving government schools in Punjab. Senior AAP spokesperson Neel Garg condemned the Teachers’ Front for attempting to politicize initiatives that are designed to enhance the quality of education and create better learning environments for students.

Neel Garg emphasized that if the Democratic Teachers’ Front is so interested in politics, it should openly declare itself a political party instead of obstructing positive changes in Punjab’s education system. He pointed out that under the Right to Education Act, it is the responsibility of local representatives—from village sarpanches to MLAs—to actively contribute to the development of government schools. Their involvement is essential for the upliftment of school infrastructure and academic standards.

Highlighting the Punjab government’s latest directive, Garg explained that all government schools in the state are now being monitored by MLAs and ministers, who are responsible for reviewing development work and inaugurating completed projects. He described this as a progressive step that ensures accountability and improves the overall administration of government schools.
