"We will announce the itinerary after a meeting between me and the primary education board officials which will be held before the third week of October," he said.

The state government had been reprimanded by the High court for irregularities in the recruitment of primary school Teachers.

Around 200 TET candidates, who had qualified in the 2014 and 2016 examinations, but could not get jobs are on a sit-in before the Gandhi statue in the Esplanade area of the city for over 520 days demanding jobs.
