The government school in Khammam district suspended an English teacher because she spent her time making Instagram reels instead of teaching her students. Gautami who worked at Mamillagudem High School left her teaching duties to create videos which she used to promote private institutions and businesses on the internet.
She kept making promotional content after school authorities issued multiple warnings because she would not fulfill her classroom duties. Her workplace suspension resulted from official findings that proved she had failed to fulfill her job responsibilities.
The authorities stated that teachers in government positions need to direct their students toward successful futures while they work to enhance educational standards at their institutions. The authorities declared that they would implement severe penalties against any teacher who failed to fulfill their work obligations.
Social media users reacted with strong comments about Gautami’s teaching ability which she should improve if she decides to return to work. Some users recommended that she should stop teaching and become a full-time influencer instead of her current job.
