Imphal, October 06 2012:
Decrying the manner in which the suffering volunteer teachers under Education Guarantee Scheme (EGS)/SSA are deliberately ignored by the Government authority by recruiting primary teachers and posting them at EGS Centres, the Education Guarantee Scheme (EGS)/SSA Volunteer Teachers' Union, Manipur has urged concerned ZEOs/DPOs not to entertain the joining reports of the newly appointed primary teachers within their respective jurisdiction.
Highlighting the grievances faced by the volunteer teachers since their appointment in 2004-05, the union said in a statement today that they would never allow the newly appointed primary teachers to submit their joining report at EGS Centres.
The statement also strongly decried the alleged indifferent attitude of the Government authority for its failure to turn the promise of regularisation of volunteer teachers under EGS/SSA.
The union also urged all concerned chiefs, chairmen and secretaries of all villages not to entertain the joining reports of newly posted primary teachers.
