JAMMU, Feb 9: Jammu & Kashmir Teachers Forum today discussed various issues pertaining to teachers and students and asked the Government to solve pending issues and problems of teachers.
The meeting which was chaired by president, EJAC and chairman JKTF, Ab Qayoom Wani, urged the Government to solve all pending issues of teachers like stoppage of examination drama for distance mode ReT Teachers, regularization of ReT Teachers having distance mode qualification certificates and their time bound promotions, release of salaries in favour of SSA, RMSA, KGBV, SBM & NPS Teachers and timely release of GP Fund.
The others demands highlighted during the meeting included removing pay anomaly, leave encashment and implementing minimum wages act in favour of contingent paid employees besides providing infrastructure to schools and provision of subject teachers to needy schools before opening of schools in winter zone.
Wani while addressing the meeting criticized Director School Education Kashmir (DSEK) for holding transfer melas, which he said, speaks the seriousness of Director (DSEK) regarding issues of the department. He said that these melas will adversely affect the honour of teaching community.
He said that trade unionism is the voice of employees and suppressed class and nobody on earth can stop us from running the movement and anybody who will try to cause any obstacle in the way, will have to face the brunt.
Wani directed all State, provisional, district, zonal leaders and delegates of JKTF to come in thousands in order to participate in the protest already announced by EJAC, on February 13, so that those who are trying to weaken the employees’ movement may be given a befitting reply.
