JAMMU, Jan 11: The ongoing chain hunger strike by the Contractual Lecturers entered into 330th day, today as there has been no response from the State Government towards their demand of regularization.
While addressing the protesters, president of All J&K 10+2 Contractual Lecturers Association, Arun Bakshi reiterated to continue the ongoing hunger strike till the Government concedes their demand.
He appealed the Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and Governor N N Vohra to personally intervene into the matter and provide them justice.
