School teachers under the banner of the All Meghalaya Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan School Teachers' Association (AMSSASTA) on Wednesday took out a protest march to the secretariat to meet the Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma and Education Minister Rakkam A. Sangma for their necessary intervention into the long pending demand for enhancing their salary by 100 percent.
The state government is yet to invite the All Meghalaya Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan School Teachers’ Association (AMSSASTA) for discussion despite staging an indefinite sit-in-demonstration for the past eight days.
The All Meghalaya SSA School Teachers’ Association (AMSSASTA) and the All Garo Hills SSA School Teachers’ Association (AGHSSASTA) on Thursday served an ultimatum to the state government to consider enhancing salary of SSA teachers in Meghalaya by September 30, failing which they would be compelled to launch an indefinite state-wide protest.
