The agreement included finding a mechanism for timely release of salaries and on the request of the department, the Association also pointed out that it had assisted at the Directorate for 24 (twenty-four) days i.e., right after discharging of school duties on weekdays as well as relinquishing holidays on non working days to speed up the process for the implementation of 7th RoP and timely release of the salaries. In spite of all these, the association lamented that they have not been paid for 5 months. Therefore, the association have appealed the Government of Nagaland to release the pending salary at the earliest.
