Bihar Education Department: A new order has been issued by the Bihar Education Department for teachers. In the light of the order of the Additional Chief Secretary of the Education Department, Dr. S Siddharth, now from Tuesday (25 June), teachers of all government schools in Bihar will have to register their attendance online with the help of the e-Shiksha Kosh mobile app. 

Teachers will have to register their attendance online every day at the time of coming to school and at the time of leaving from school. However, this process of registering online attendance is being started on a trial basis. For this, at least one teacher from each school has been asked to register online attendance. 

Along with this, all the teachers will also make offline attendance in the register as before. If not even a single attendance is registered online from a particular school, then considering that the school is closed, action can be taken against all the teachers.

Additional Chief Secretary of Education Department Dr. S Siddharth had given strict instructions to all BPMs and BRCs through video conferencing and said that they should ensure that the data of all teachers and students is enrolled on the e-Shiksha Kosh app by 5 pm on 24 June. Any kind of negligence and laxity will compel disciplinary action against them.
