The state rescinds an order requiring school teachers to perform after-hours census duties, according to Times of India. The move ends the requirement that teachers take on census-related work outside their normal teaching hours.
The report frames the decision as an administrative reversal rather than a policy shift on census participation itself. While the available information centers on the withdrawal of the specific after-hours duty directive, it does not detail the reasons for the cancellation, such as whether it follows logistical concerns, workload considerations, or feedback from education stakeholders.
Other outlets are not provided in the supplied material, so differing angles cannot be compared. Based on the available source, the confirmed development is that the after-hours census assignment for schoolteachers is no longer in effect.
