The Maharashtra government has issued a clarification regarding the Samagra Shiksha scheme, which integrates education from pre-primary to Class 12. Following the abrupt halt of the scheme on March 31, approximately 3,800 contractual employees faced job uncertainty. However, the government stated that the scheme has not been permanently discontinued and may be reinstated in a revised form. The Maharashtra Primary Education Council confirmed that the scheme's future roadmap is under consideration at the central level, with potential updates including components such as digital inclusion, vocational education, and data-driven governance. A programme officer emphasized that no employee has lost their job, and the scheme is currently in a transitional phase to better align with the National Education Policy (NEP). While the process may take time, the government aims to ensure the scheme continues in a more effective and comprehensive manner.
