**Resource person:** GuruSetu - An animated series for teachers in Indian higher education

1. A draft invites consideration and may change; it should not be treated as the operative rule merely because it is widely discussed.
2. Promises about reasonable workload and accountability do not themselves state a universal teaching-hour limit or a complete evaluation procedure.
3. It identifies the terms and cited rules that apply to the particular post, which broad policy language may not resolve.
4. Keep assignments, reading lists, teaching materials, feedback and examples of improvement with enough context to explain their purpose.
5. Agree on a supportive purpose, observe a chosen class and discuss teaching decisions respectfully afterwards.
