DIMAPUR, OCTOBER 16 (MExN): The All Nagaland Aggrieved Hindi Teachers Association (ANAHTA) on Sunday said that it will boycott classes from October 17 onwards as announced earlier on account of nonpayment of their full salaries since the month of March, 2016.
The Association also said it was not willing to accept the one-month salary offered by the State Government. “We have been working the whole year without salary, we are not willing to accept one month salary as piecemeal payment to temporarily appease our sufferings,” the Association stated in a press release.
Lamenting that the same practice has been going on ever since their appointment, the aggrieved Hindi teachers said they would start boycotting classes from October 17 onwards.
The ANAHTA has therefore appealed the headmasters, teachers in charge of both the government and private schools to bear with the inconvenience caused to the school and students at large, asserting that it is “not our desire.” The Association has also called for an emergency meeting of all district representatives on October 19.
