Jamshedpur, Nov. 27: Para-teachers of East Singhbhum district staged dharna at Aambagan in favour of their demands. The agitating para teachers under the banner of Para-teachers SanghurshMorcha, East Singhbhumsat at Aambagan ground in Sakchi. The rally culminated near the district collectorate where the agitating para-teachers raised anti-slogans against the chief minister condemning yesterday’s incident.
The teachers said that though they have been fighting for their long standing demand of regularisation of services and were expecting some announcements in their favour by the chief minister during the Statehood Day function but nothing has been done so far.
A delegation of para- teachers had met the East Singhbhum deputy commissioner Amit Kumar and handed over the latter a memorandum about their decision of going for an indefinite strike.
More than 3000 students across 200 new primary schools (that runs in a rented shelter) are entirely based on para teachers in East Singhbhum. The para teachers have been continuously agitating based on two points but without any result. Last year more than 2000 para teachers out of a total number of 2743 teachers joined the agitation in Ranchi, affecting primary schools.
