While speaking, Pawar urged the Government for immediate regularization of all J&K temporary teachers, who were appointed vide cabinet decision No. 106/14 dated 11/6/14 and Government order number 482 dated 2-7-17 purely on merit basis.
He added that Government is giving only assurance to educated youth to settle their demands, but nothing has been done on practical grounds till date.
