Mr. C. Subramaniam, Minister for Finance and Education, categorically stated in the Madras Legislative Assembly on February 9 that the Government would not allow any teacher to be thrown out of employment or any child denied educational facilities on account of the threatened closure of aided elementary schools by the managements consequent on Government’s Order that schools receiving Government grant should not levy fees. If and when the private schools closed, they would be taken over by the Corporation in the city, municipalities and district boards in the mofussil and panchayats in the rural areas, Mr. Subramaniam said.
