MUMBAI: Special Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation (MSRTC) buses will run for teachers from Monday so they can carry out Secondary School Certificate (SSC) results work.
Teachers were demanding trains to travel from distant areas such as Kalyan-Dombivli, Navi Mumbai, Vasai-Virar, Palghar and Badlapur, among others. As Mumbai remains in Level 3, teachers did not get permission to board trains.
While uploading of marks for Class X is complete, from Monday the work of hand-delivering the marks to the state education board’s office in Vashi will begin. Teachers will have to pay for the bus tickets. Teachers’ unions have demanded free travel and alleged while they struggled to get to schools for assessment work, the buses were being made available to carry marksheets to the board’s office.
