The research was conducted in Kashi Vidyapeeth Block of Varanasi District, Uttar Pradesh. A total of 100 in-service school teachers were selected from various schools of Kashi Vidyapeeth Block of Varanasi, U.P. through purposive-cum-incidental sampling as respondents. Teacher Eligibility Test Relevance Opinionnaire (TETRO) was used as tool for data collection.
