A teachers' organisation has opposed a directive that would require school principals to obtain a licence for serving mid-day meals. This requirement is seen as adding to the administrative responsibilities of principals. The organisation's district units were involved in submitting their concerns.

Protests were held across the state, with demonstrations taking place outside various offices. A peaceful protest was also held at a college campus.

Further details about the protests and the organisation's concerns are available from the source publication, which reported on the statewide agitation and the teachers' demands for reconsideration of the food licence rule.
