The Punjab education department has revoked the transfer orders of 162 teachers to schools of eminence after facing backlash. The transfer orders were issued without following proper procedures and obtaining consent from the teachers, leading to protests. The government emphasized that the decision was made to ensure students' academics were not affected. The Democratic Teachers Front criticized the government for the hasty decision and demanded the recruitment of teachers for schools of eminence instead of transferring them from regular schools. The government is also facing the challenge of filling a large number of vacant teaching positions in government schools.
