Candidates will have to return money to EDMC if they fail to complete the course
The East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC) on Tuesday announced that it will finance training programmes for teachers and school heads at foreign universities. The maximum assistance provided to each candidate will be ₹75 lakh.
“Every year, two teachers from the schools under the EDMC jurisdiction will be sent for a one-year course at a reputed foreign university,” a civic body official said.

“Walk for Equality was aimed at creating a movement to crush the forces attempting to divide the people along religious line, said Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) leader Vaiko. Concluding his 140-kilometre ‘Samathuva nadai payanam’ from Tiruchi to Madurai on Monday, Mr. Vaiko said, “The Hindutva forces are actively attempting to drive a wedge between communities through various incidents, most notably the Thirupparankundram deepam controversy, using identity-based politics to achieve their divisive motives.”
