The newly-elected government of Madhya Pradesh has found a unique way to address the problem of teacher shortage in government-run schools in the state. It has decided to merge as many as 22,000 public schools, which means almost the same number of headmasters of these schools will now have to teach students as subject experts. For years, these headmasters were busy attending files and doing other official work. Suddenly they are facing a new challenge — that of imparting education. Madhya Pradesh has a shortage of more than 75,000 teachers in government-run schools.
