बिहार विधानसभा में बजट सत्र के दौरान सरकारी स्कूलों में शिक्षकों की ड्यूटी टाइमिंग में बदलाव नहीं होने पर विपक्ष के विधायकों ने सवाल उठाया। मुख्यमंत्री नीतीश कुमार ने विपक्ष को आश्वासन दिया कि शिक्षकों के ड्यूटी टाइमिंग में आज से ही बदलाव किया जाएगा। उन्होंने कहा कि शिक्षा विभाग के अपर मुख्य सचिव केके पाठक को अपना आदेश बदलना होगा। नीतीश कुमार ने स्पष्ट कहा कि नौ बजे से पांच बजे तक की टाइमिंग गलत है और अगर नहीं हुआ तो आज ही से इसे लागू करवाते हैं।
