HASSAN: Minister for Public Works and Energy H.D. Revanna has said that the Government planned to allot sites to teachers at subsidised prices in taluk and district places, besides addressing problems faced by them.

`Give quality education'

Mr. Revanna, who inaugurated a programme organised by the district administration, the zilla panchayat and the Department of Public Instruction to mark the Teachers' Day on Monday, appealed to the teachers to improve the quality of education in the district and help in putting the district on the top slot in terms of education.

He said the district-level convention of school and college teachers would be convened to discuss the problems faced by them.

Efforts would be made to provide basic amenities at the newly opened schools and colleges across the district, including recruitment of teachers.
