Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has nominated Reza-Morad Sahrayi as the new minister of education, more than a month after the previous minister resigned.
Raisi nominated Sahrayi in a letter to Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Baqer Qalibaf, pending a vote of confidence at the legislature.
Former Minister of Education Yousef Nouri resigned on April 3 after an outcry over a delay in paying teacher salaries.
Reza-Morad Sahraei was appointed caretaker minister at the time.
Following the delay in paying the teachers, Raisi ordered First Vice President Mohammad Mokhber to investigate the case.
