Singh admitted he was responsible for the recruitment process. The selection, held after 25 years, was transparent and based on merit. He asked why professors should suffer for political apathy.

The Supreme Court had quashed their appointments in July last year. This decision created unrest and risked disruption in state colleges. Singh said the demands of educators were simple — legal support, a review petition in the SC, and an ordinance if needed.

He urged CM Bhagwant Singh Mann to meet the professors directly. “A government that disrespects teachers disrespects Punjab’s future,” Singh warned. He also promised to raise the issue strongly in the Vidhan Sabha.

The Congress leader assured that his party would back the educators. He said they deserve justice, dignity, and their rightful place in classrooms.
