Setting a positive example, the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has taken up teaching in schools of Ramgarh district, owing to the dearth of teachers due to the ongoing strike of para educators in the state.

Personnel of the force dropped guns and picked up chalks instead to become educators, in a bid to exemplify that CRPF is always committed to serving the people in every possible way.

"Sensing this imbroglio, CRPF has decided to intervene in a major way. Primarily dealing with guns and explosives, they undertook an unfamiliar charter of pen and chalk. Though they have been perpetually involved in teaching activities here and there to help the needy and marginalised in Naxal affected remote locations, this time it was combined effort put together, of all the CRPF Units in the State," read a press statement from the security force.

According to the press statement, Ram Saran Yadav, Principal of Rajkiya Krit Madhya Vidyalaya in Kedla of Ramgarh district, while talking to media, said that they were facing severe difficulties in conducting regular classes after all 5 of his para teachers went on strike.

He further informed that personnel of 26 battalion of CRPF deployed in the area undertook teaching in the school and now routine activities have resumed in full swing.
