  "account": "Teaching candidates in Prayagraj have maintained their indefinite sit-in protest on September 9, 2026, demanding notification for over 60,000 primary teacher positions. The protesters accused the government of delaying vacancies for the past eight years, which they believe is negatively impacting their lives. Rajat Singh, state president of DELED Morcha, stated that the prolonged delay amounts to a criminal act, as it robs young people of valuable years.\n\nThe Sanyukt Pratiyogi Chhatra Hunkar Manch, a Prayagraj-based organization representing competitive government recruitment exam aspirants, also supported the candidates. They communicated their concerns through social media platforms. Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh visited the protest site and expressed his support, visiting the students' protest site. He highlighted that over 15 lakh unemployed D.El.Ed trained individuals have been waiting for teacher recruitment for the past nine years, and approximately two lakh primary teacher posts remain vacant in Uttar Pradesh. Sanjay Singh criticized the state government for failing to conduct recruitment examinations and urged the government to take prompt action.",
