Imphal, July 19 2020:
The Dhanamanjuri College of Science Teachers' Association (DMCOSTA) has expressed deep resentment over the 'continued and deliberate neglect' of the legitimate demand of the college teachers regarding the implementation of the 7th UGC pay and regulation by the Government.
A press release issued by the joint secretary of DMCOSTA, Dr K Anthony Singh said that the Government has failed to fulfil its assurance, which was given on several occasions regarding the implementation of the 7th UGC pay and regulation, 2018 till now.
Saying that the demands of the teachers have been approved by the State Cabinet twice, Dr Anthony lamented that issuance of the orders of 7th pay implementation for other employees of the State with an actual cash payment from April 2020 has caused much anguish and sense of alienation among the college teachers.
He then added that DMCOSTA has decided to boycott all academic activities including online classes, exam duties and participation in the admission process and work in close coordination with FEGOCTA till the Government issues orders implementing 7th UGC pay and regulation, 2018 for college teachers.
