A guest teacher in Haryana’s Rohtak district is suspended for participating in a protest linked to the Cockroach Janta Party at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, according to multiple reports. Sulekha Dalal’s suspension is effective June 8, and it follows her appearance at the protest, which was circulated online in a viral video. The suspension order cites violation of conduct rules for government employees, including leaving her station and joining the protest without prior approval.
Dalal, as reported, says she took part because she is concerned about irregularities in a recruitment examination that she believes have affected her son. Her stated reason is presented as separate from the department’s explanation, which focuses on her failure to follow employee conduct requirements related to official duties and permissions. Both accounts describe the timing as closely after she joins the protest, and both frame the action as disciplinary rather than addressing the claims raised by protestors. The incident is reported as part of broader public attention around recruitment-related allegations and the protest at Jantar Mantar.
