Teachers of GP Women's College, DM College and Manipur College staged sit-in protests at their respective colleges today.
FEGOCTA had submitted an ultimatum to the Government setting the deadline for implementation of 7th Pay' by January 27, failing which the teachers will be forced into various forms of agitations.
It is noteworthy that the Cabinet had already approved the 7th UGC Pay about 5 months back but it has not been implemented so far.
Dr N Somorendro Singh questioned why only the Government college teachers have been left out of the 7th UGC Pay and how long the teachers will be deprived of their rights.
