Tuensang, October 20 (MExN): Taking cognizance of the grievances of the SSA teachers and aggrieved Hindi Teachers serving within its jurisdiction in remote villages of Shamator and Pungro, the Yimchungrü Akherü Arihako (YAA) has extended strong support to the NSSATA demand and in this regard, urged the Department of School Education (DoSE) to immediately release the pending salaries.
YAA Joint Secretary R. Achung in a press release expressed that it was disheartened to learn of the SSA Teachers not being paid salaries for the last five months while the aggrieved Hindi Teachers were also deprived of their salaries for the last six months.
“This has cause untold hardships to the teaching faculty. With the academic session to end and the boycotting of classes by the SSA Teachers has adversely affected the students’ career,” it added.
In this regard, the YAA strongly urged the responsible competent authority to redress the grievances of the aggrieved teachers without any delay so that they can resume normal functioning of classes.
