The Andhra Pradesh Primary Teachers Association (APPTA) wants the government to promote teachers who work with younger students (SGTs) to be headmasters in primary schools.
They don't like the government's plan to move teachers from other schools to primary schools because it might stop the SGTs from getting promoted.
