Himachal: Six JBT teachers suspended for misconduct, unauthorized absence

Shimla, Apr 26 (UNI) The Himachal Pradesh government has suspended six Junior Basic Training (JBT) teachers across the state for alleged gross misconduct, including absence from duty and participation in protests against government policies.
