Directorate of Education re-instates all 594 vocational trainers
On Wednesday (26th June, 2024), the Directorate of Education in Delhi repealed its earlier order passed last month and re-instated all the 594 vocational trainers who were fired from their jobs by the AAP government. The department has taken the decision following the directions of the Delhi Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena. Earlier on Saturday, a delegation of BJP leaders met with the Delhi LG with a demand to restore the skill trainers. The delegation included all seven BJP MPs from Delhi.
After the meeting with Delhi LG, BJP MP Bansuri Swaraj stated that the Delhi government has got Rs 38 crore sanctioned for the salaries of the vocational trainers for the year 2024-25. Yet, they gave a bizarre reason, heatwave, to sack the teachers. “We have discussed this issue with the Delhi LG”, she added.
Now, on Wednesday, the Directorate of Education, Vocational Education Branch, GNCTD issued an order reinstating all the 594 vocational teachers. The order states, “In view of the representations made by Part Time Vocational Teachers (PTVTs) / Vocational Trainers & others, the Order no. DE-45 / VE / NSQF / 10 / 2019 / 136-141 dated 27/05/2024 is rescinded. This issues with the prior approval of the Competent Authority.”

He wrote, “The Kejriwal government of Delhi passed an order on 27 May 2024 and fired 594 vocational teachers under the Directorate of Education overnight!
