JAMMU, June 28: The Jammu Kashmir Teachers Forum has urged the Lt Governor to personally intervene to resolve the long pending issues of the teaching fraternity in the J&K Union Territory at the earliest.
The appeal was made during an emergency meeting of the Forum, held through video conferencing under the chairmanship of Ganesh Khajuria, State Chairman, and attended by the Central Body members of JKTF.
The Forum requested to the higher authorities to frame a clear-cut policy for the regularisation of Rehbar-e-Khel cadre against the posts of the Physical Education Teachers to safeguard the interests of the students in general and the R-e-K teachers in particular and implement the Minimum Wages Act in their favour till they are regularised against the clear vacancies.
The Forum further stressed that revocation of SRO-202 should be applied in toto in its letter & spirit in favour of all the employees who have been appointed under the provisions of this SRO since its inception in order to provide the justice to these ignored employees who have been deprived of their legitimate rights by the successive Governments on the one pretext or the other.
“They have pinned high hopes from the Lieutenant Governor Girish Chandra Murmu to give due consideration to the just & genuine issues of the School Education Employees and to issue the necessary directions to the concerned authorities to resolve the issues at the earliest to give a sigh of relief and to provide justice to these aggrieved cadres,” said the meet.
