The move will be applicable to all the schools, including private, aided and non-aided, in the state, the GR said. “The dress worn by teachers should be neat. The female teachers should wear saree or dress (salwar, chudidar, kurta and dupatta) and male teachers can wear trousers and shirts (tucked in),” said the resolution.
