"Our main purpose is to give quality education to the school students. Children may have some issues regarding academic side, if guardians want to consult with the teacher, they don't know each other. If any child has any problem, then parents want to discuss with the teachers, if they don't know who are the teachers so it becomes difficult. That's why we have asked all the institutional head to display the photographs of the teachers in the classrooms," Mamata Hojai said.
