Thane mayor Sanjay More today alleged that the school department was indifferent to vacancies of teachers in English medium classes in the municipal schools.
More directed the officials to submit a report on this within eight days.
In a press release, More said he had followed up the issue of recruitment of teachers with the officials, but the latter were apathetic.
After the general Body of the corporation passed a resolution to recruit teaching staff for English classes nine months ago, there was no further move, he said.
