      "q": "Is B.Ed mandatory for this role?",
      "a": "For most K-12 teaching positions a B.Ed (or NIOS D.El.Ed for primary) is preferred and often required by board affiliations; pre-primary and special-skill roles sometimes accept relevant certification in lieu.

      "q": "What arrangements are there for women teachers' commute and safety?",
      "a": "Most reputable schools in Darjeeling run staff transport (bus or shared cab) covering the main residential clusters, with women-first drop after evening duties.
