Nagpur, Apr 14 (PTI) Former MLC Nago Ganar on Monday claimed 580 teachers have been appointed illegally in government primary schools in Nagpur district.
Ganar, who is also the working president of Maharashtra Rajya Shikshak Parishad, while speaking to television news channels, cited a preliminary report of the state government to back his claim.
“As per the report, these persons were given ‘Shalarth’ (an online payroll mechanism for teachers) ID without any kind of verification since 2019. The documents submitted were bogus and salary claims were approved illegally. An SIT must be formed to probe this scam,” he said.

The Nagpur police is yet file an FIR in this case, Ganar said.
