The Kerala State Commission for Protection of Child Rights (KSCPCR) officially instructed all school teachers to be addressed as 'teacher' instead of 'madam' or 'sir,' regardless of gender. According to PTI, this order was passed while taking into consideration a plea filed by an individual looking to end the bigotry in Kerala schools while addressing teachers 'madam' or 'sir' as per their gender.
