Manipur Contractual Teachers Protest, Demand Regularisation
Imagine teachers in Manipur schools who are not getting paid regularly.
Over 600 of them are protesting because they want their jobs made permanent and to be paid on time.
They started this protest because the government promised to make their jobs permanent in 2022 and pay them regularly starting in 2023, but it hasn't happened yet.
This is making it hard for the teachers to pay their bills.
Even the students are upset, so they're also asking the government to fix the problem so they can go back to normal classes.
Over 600 contractual teachers in Manipur are protesting.
They are demanding regularisation of their services and timely salary payments.
The strike has disrupted academic activities for three consecutive days.
The teachers are striking to enforce a 2022 cabinet decision and a 2023 order.
Students also protested, urging authorities to address teachers' demands.
