 Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 16: Teachers' Joint Action Committee (TJAC) members today staged a protest demonstration, demanding 7th Pay Commission benefits and delinking of SSA Salary.
In the form of protest demonstration thousands of teachers, who had assembled outside Press Club, proceed towards Governor's house and when they reached near Indira Chowk, heavy deployment of police foiled their bid. In the ensuing scuffle, several protesters received minor injuries.
Addressing the gathering Vinod Sharma lamented the government for its dilly delaying tactics to resolve the issues of SSA Teachers and masters including immediate implementation of 7th Pay Commission and delinking of SSA Salary from MHRD to State Budget due to which families of thousands of these teachers are suffering badly as they are living miserable lives as they are unable to provide proper food and clothing to their children and required medicines to their old and ailing parents.
He said, "We have projected these issues from bottom to top and even many peaceful protests have been held in Jammu as well as Kashmir province and we have been on chain hunger strike for last 18 days but still these issues are unresolved, thereby forcing us to come on roads and choosing extreme step of continuing indefinite Chain hunger strike "
While speaking Najam Jafri said that they have no such intension to leave their schools and come on roads but callous approach of the government is forcing them for such steps.
