Measures to revise school timings in Bengaluru City: Madhu Bangarappa

Minister Madhu Bangarappa announced that a decision on revising school timings in Bengaluru will be made after consulting various departments, addressing concerns about traffic congestion. The Private Schools Association has requested this change due to the city's traffic issues. Bangarappa made these remarks at an event held at St. Philomena’s Institution in Attibele on Saturday.

He also mentioned that the government is considering the idea of recognizing teachers from private schools for a State-level teacher's award, a matter under consideration. Additionally, a Cabinet sub-committee led by Legislative Council Member Puttanna has suggested renewing recognition for private schools and extending the House Rent Allowance to teachers in government and aided schools in Bengaluru Rural district. Bangarappa stated that a decision on these matters would be made after further discussions.
