Denouncing the failure of the Government to implement the 7th Pay for Government tea-chers, FEGOCTA (Federa- tion of Government College Teachers' Association) has resolved to boycott all academic activities except examinations from February 3 .
All the academic activities including classes will be boycotted from February 3.Only the examination activities will be exempted, it said in a statement informing that the decision was taken during a sit-in protest held at YK College, Wangjing today.
Sit-in protests will be staged at all Government colleges.
The Government should take Cabinet approval to implement the 7th Pay immediately and stop testing the patience of college teachers, FEGOCTA said reminding the Government of the three written assurances it gave the association earlier.
The State Cabinet had earlier also approved, in principle, to implement the 7th Pay, it added.
It will be supporting proposed sit-in protests at Chu- rachandpur on February 3 and United College Chandel on February 4, said FEGOCTA.
