Out of which 90 teachers (45 male and 45 female) of General category, 90 teachers (45 male and 45 female) of Other Backward category and 90 teachers (45 male and 45 female) of Scheduled caste category were selected. Thus finally 270 teachers were selected. Teachers’ Job Satisfaction Scale (TJSS) was used to collect the data.
