"We have got a proposal in this regard from officials of the secondary education department. We are looking at it," Rajasthan Education Minister Ghanshyam Tiwari told IANS here.

The need to appoint a brand ambassador was felt following increasing competition from private schools.

The brand ambassadors would be those who have made their institutions proud in some way.

"I feel it would be a step in the right direction to attract students to government schools," said Manisha Singh, a teacher in a government school. The teachers would take extra classes during holidays.
