Besides milching money from students, a four-figure tuition fee every month most private institute, pay low salaries (hardly Rs 3,000) to their teachers? The exploitation of teachers in such schools is another factor which, perhaps, is more shameful for us because if the educated block is so vulnerable to professional exploitation, then how would we expect them to provide justice to common people? In some schools, teachers work for a meager pay of Rs 1,000 and many others sign for higher pay while getting low. The discipline in privately managed schools is indeed industry-like, where underpaid teachers are pushed to outperform themselves. Schoolteachers in government schools are paid better than their counterparts in private schools.
