Guest lecturers in Bhopal tonsure their heads demanding regularisation

Several guest lecturers on Sunday got their heads tonsured as a mark of protest in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh against the failure of the state government of heeding to their demands to regularise their jobs.

“It is very painful but we have no option left. CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan is not listening to our demands,” said one of the lecturers who got her head tonsured.

In January, teachers from across the state had gathered at the BHEL Jamboorie ground and tonsured their heads demanding that the state government include them in the Education Department as regular teachers.
