Order sparks debate on teacher residency for ZP school teachers
Some people are talking about whether teachers in certain schools should have to live in the same village where they teach.
A new rule in one area says teachers who don't live in the village might have their extra money for housing stopped.
Some teachers don't live in the village because it's easier for their families, or because there aren't good places to live there.
The teachers say that where they live doesn't change how well they teach.
An order in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar addresses ZP teachers' residency.
The order demands show-cause notices for teachers not living in teaching villages.
The debate centers on if teachers should reside where they teach.
Many teachers live elsewhere for family convenience or housing issues.
Teachers believe residency doesn't affect teaching quality.
