Dimapur, July 12 (MExN): The All Nagaland Government College Teachers’ Association (ANGCTA) has extended support to the ‘Justice Day’ protest called by the All India Federation of University and College Teachers’ Organization (AIFUCTO) on July 12.
The AIFUCTO is demanding, among other things, immediate publication of the report and implementation of 7th UGC pay revision recommendations in consultation with AIFUCTO and other teachers’ body, 100% financial assistance for uniform & simultaneous implementation of 7th pay scale, abolition of anomalies in the 6th RoP, stopping budget cut in education, immediate withdrawal of Higher Education Financing Agency and Higher Education Empowerment Regulation Act, and strengthening UGC and AICTE.
According to a statement from ANGCTA, despite appeals made by AIFUCTO for the publication of 7th RoP, the MHRD is “deliberately dilly-dallying by making empty promises.” Therefore, ANGCTA urged the MHRD to immediately fulfil the demands of the teaching community to avoid bitter confrontation. Further, it assured full co-operation to the AIFUCTO’s “struggle for the welfare of the teachers of higher education in the country.”
