Bhopal's Department of Public Instruction (DPI) headquarters will now restrict entry to only individuals possessing a valid pass. Security measures have been bolstered to safeguard officials and staff. School education secretary Sanjay Goyal announced the tightened security measures on Friday. DPI employees had initiated a two-hour protest outside the Commissioner of Public Instruction (CPI) office, halting routine work during the demonstration.
The protest concluded after a two-hour period. Employees approached Goyal with their grievances following the incident on Thursday. Goyal personally visited the DPI and acknowledged the solidarity demonstrated by employees and officials in the wake of Thursday’s event. Additionally, staff at the State Education Centre also held a protest regarding the security situation.
Reports emerged that ABVP workers had allegedly breached the DPI headquarters on Thursday, supporting protesting candidates, causing disruptions, and engaging in inappropriate behavior with officials. The police intervened, restoring order. Teachers' association president Jagdish Yadav reported that employees continued to support the Commissioner by halting work at BEO, DEO, BRC offices, and schools, though classroom teaching remained unaffected.
