In a crackdown on private tutions by government school teachers, the State vigilance Organisation (SVO) today raided six private institutions in the city and seized their records.
On a specific information, that some Government teachers are indulging in practice of private tuitions, in violation of service conduct rules, checking was carried out by the Vigilance Organization in six private institutions which include Aakash, ASL, Apex, Civils and Genesis in Jammu city, a senior SVO officer said.
During checking, it was found that some of the Government employees were actually delivering lectures to the candidates in these institutions, he added.
The relevant records such as Enrolment register, cash memo, day book, income tax returns and registration certificates were also seized and these are being scrutinized, he said.
Other relevant records like balance sheets, bank accounts are being sought. Action as warranted shall be taken after scrutiny of the relevant records against erring government teachers, the SVO officer added.
Last month, the state State Education Ministry had ordered a "blanket ban" on private tuitions by government school teachers, while directing the authorities to form "crack teams" for a strict implementation of the order.
As per the order, disciplinary action will be initiated against any Principal, headmaster, lecturer, master, teacher or Rehbar-e-Taleem (ReT) teachers involved in giving private tuition or associated with private tutorials in any capacity.
