Syro-Malabar Church opposes aided school appointment rules
The Syro-Malabar Church is upset because the Kerala government wants to make temporary teachers and staff in their schools through job centers.
The church says this is not fair and goes against their rights.
They want the government to stop this rule because they believe it takes away their ability to manage their own schools.
The government says schools should hire from job center lists, but the church disagrees and wants the rule to be canceled.
Syro-Malabar Church opposes Kerala government's decision to route temporary and daily-wage appointments in aided schools through employment exchanges.
The church alleges the decision is unconstitutional and infringes upon the rights of minority institutions.
A circular issued by the Regional Deputy Director of General Education, Kannur, on July 15, directed aided schools to make temporary appointments from employment exchange lists.
The church urges the state government to revoke the decision, citing the importance of aided schools in Kerala’s educational and social development.
The decision was based on a communication issued by the Director of General Education on June 27.
