  "summary": "The Hindu reports on the controversial allegations made by AAP MLA Sukhveer Singh Maiserkhana regarding teacher shortages in government schools in Punjab’s Maur constituency. This has led to his suspension for alleged \"anti-party activities and indiscipline.\" The Opposition has seized on this episode, but it raises a more practical question about the impact of Punjab’s much-publicized education revolution. The state has made significant strides in education, with the NITI Aayog's 2026 report highlighting its strong performance in learning outcomes. However, the report cautions against overemphasizing the number of schools upgraded or teachers trained, as the real test lies in whether these interventions lead to sustained improvements in classroom teaching and learning.",
