Early Times Report
UDHAMPUR, July 28: A protest cum dharna was organized under the banner of All Jammu and Kashmir ReT teachers' Forum at Zonal level in front of Zonal Education Office Ramnagar. They said that as the process of Implementation of 7th pay commission to all the SSA teachers, Masters and Delinking of SSA salary to the State budget has not been completed till date by the Education Department even after a number of assurances. It seems that the Department is not serious about the genuine demands of the builders of the Nation. It is very astonishing that those Govt. Employees, who have already got the benefit of the 6th Pay Commission, are being harassed by the Government by depriving of their fundamental rights of equal pay for equal work. Moreover, they are not getting their salaries regularly due to the lack of coordination between the State Govt and the Centre Govt. Hence, the delinking of SSA salary to the State budget is only the solution. In this regard memorandum is being submitted to Tehsildar Ramnagar to project the demands of Employees under SSA and our demands be fulfilled at the earliest otherwise our peaceful protests shall soon be converted into a strong agitation if our above quoted genuine demands are not fulfilled by the Govt. in time and we shall left with no other option other than to lock out of all the schools completely till the end because the starving ones can't do any justice to their jobs as well as to the society. Employees present in the protest were Man Chand, Shail Sambyal, Rajeev Sharma, Sunil Kumar, Pardeep Kumar, Sunil Mansotra, Sunil Salaria, Ram Gopal, Koushal Kumar, Raghuber Bharti, Rekha Devi, Dharminder Singh, Narrian Singh, Ravinder Singh, Kuldeep Chand, Vicky Sharma, Som Raj, Puran Chand, Navdeep Makotia, Ajay Sambyal, Bholi Devi, Rekha Rani Charak, Sheetal Kumari, Sunekha Rani, Arjun Singh, Mohan Lal, Dilawar Singh, Anchal Singh and others. |
