HYDERABAD: The absence of teachers has pushed a school’s gatekeeper to the classroom in Gul Muhammad Thora village of Hyderabad.

Gatekeeper Iftikhar Ali said the local administration officials and residents of the area have threatened him of withholding his salary if he refuses to teach the students.

The school has enrolled over 55 students; the responsibility to teach all of whom now falls on Ali, who was initially hired to keep guard at school gate.

Although he has completed matriculation, his basic qualification does not make him eligible to fill in the space of a teacher.
