Imphal, December 21 2010:
The relay hunger strike of the Council of Teachers Association (COTA) in demand of 6th Central Pay in toto has entered 16 days today.
It may be mentioned that COTA has been continuing its relay hunger strike at the gate of Johnstone Higher Secondary School with two teachers each from a school after they suspended their cease work strike keeping in view of the academic career of the students.
A press release of COTA today appealed the MLAs and ministers to discuss the issue of the teachers in the Assembly session.
If the government failed to give their demand in the talk which was scheduled on January 4, COTA will consider continuing its cease work strike again.
The press release further informed the Head Masters and Principals of the schools to send only two teachers from their school for the ongoing relay hunger strike.
