Municipal Corporation of Delhi's solution

Municipal Corporation of Delhi's solution to the complaints of molestation in schools: Bar male teachers in about 1200 MCD girls schools and co-ed schools with children up to 11 yrs!

It is unbelievable. So what happens now to the thousands of teachers in such schools? Will they be relocated to other schools or will they just have to rue over the stupidity of the Municipal Corporation. And what about the schools where there are under-age teenage girls? So you remove male teachers from all except the all-boys schools. Do we even have enough female teachers to replace all the male teachers in schools?
Such one stroke solutions to problems are clearly ways for administrators to look concerned about public safety, and nothing else.
