Mokokchung, November 6 (MExN): The Ao Students’ Conference (AKM) has informed the Chief Minister of Nagaland that it has resolved to keep its ‘ultimatum’ in abeyance that was served to the State Government in reference to SSA and Hindi teachers’ unpaid salaries.
While appreciating the CM’s “timely intervention” into, and “addressal” of, the matter, the AKM stated in a letter to the CM from AKM President L Jemti Longchar and General Secretary Bendangkumba Aier that the ‘ultimatum’ is held in abeyance after receiving official intimation from the NSSATA and ANHTA of “assurance given by the Commissioner and Secretary to Govt. of Nagaland and Minister of School Education for early release of pending salary within the month of November 2016.”
Explaining that the ‘ultimatum’ was served as the issue was jeopardizing the students’ academic career, the Ao students’ body stated that it would now like to put faith in the CM’s leadership—that the issue will be taken up at the earliest as per the assurance given by the Government.
“The AKM will ever remain ever vigilant and cautious to this issue and failure on the part of the government to fulfill as per assurance given, AKM will resort to any kind and course of action so that the rights and interest of the students are not hampered at all cost,” the letter maintained.
