Two teachers suspended amid a Karnataka RSS row can now contest the action before a tribunal.
The Karnataka government has suspended two teachers following a row involving the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). The suspension was part of disciplinary measures taken in response to the controversy.
According to the latest decision, the teachers now have the right to challenge the suspension before a designated tribunal. The tribunal will review the case and determine whether the disciplinary action was justified.
The move comes amid growing scrutiny of the state's handling of the RSS‑related incident. Officials say the tribunal process will ensure a fair and transparent outcome.
The teachers have not yet filed their appeal, but the tribunal hearing is scheduled to take place in the coming weeks. The case is being closely watched by education stakeholders across Karnataka.
