In a sweeping decision, the Punjab government has announced a ban on social media usage for all teachers and education officers. This directive, which comes after federal government instructions, aims to uphold professional standards within the education sector.
An official notification has been issued, with letters dispatched to district education authorities to ensure compliance. The ban prohibits any social media engagement, with violations subject to disciplinary action under the Punjab Government Rules of 1966.
This move has prompted a wave of reactions from educators and parents, raising concerns about the implications for communication and community involvement. As the education community adjusts to these new regulations, the discussion around the impact of such restrictions continues.
