Dishonouring the teachers
It is praiseworthy that our government is trying to digitalise the education system of Bangladesh, but the rules they are imposing on teachers are really regrettable. From time immemorial, teachers are respectable persons but now we see that teachers are being harassed. Any kind of punishment in the classroom has been banned. But we should understand that in some cases, punishment is indispensable for maintaining discipline, though it should be moderate. The teachers who apply severe punishment on students should be brought to justice but passage of a law against any kind of punishment is quite unexpected . Now teachers have become puppets in the hands of conspirators. Many teachers are being harassed and accused of practising corporal punishment in schools. If this situation continues, no sensible person will take to teaching. And this is the best way to destroy a nation. So the government should look into the matter.
