Imphal, November 15 2014 :
The Tribal Youth Council, Manipur (TYCM) today submitted a memorandum to Chief Minister O Ibobi demanding regularisation of contract teachers of hill districts considering the educational needs of the students and MoUs signed between the State Government and the tribal bodies.
The memo stated that the Directorate of Education(s), Government of Manipur had conducted a physical reverification with relevant documents of the contract teachers where 772 contract teachers were found to be genuine.
The matter has been put forth to the higher authority concerned.
However, it has failed to yield a positive result, the memorandum said.
It pointed out that the only means of good education system for the schools in hill districts is to provide proper and adequate teaching staff in the schools.
The contract teachers who have been suffering by sacrificing their career must be treated magnanimously.
Therefore, the memorandum urged Chief Minister O Ibobi to regularise their service at the earliest.
