The teachers of government colleges across the country on Tuesday started their three-day work abstention demanding removal of ‘discrepancies’ from the 8th National Pay Scale. The programme will end on January 28.
The teachers are observing the abstention programme under the banner of Bangladesh Civil Service General Education Association (BCSGEA).
The teachers also threatened to go for tough movement if their demands were not met.
BCSGEA President Nasrin Begum said the teachers observed the programme together demanding justice in the pay scale.
“The teachers are unhappy as the pay scale undermined them.
Teachers have been protesting since the Eighth National Pay Scale was published by a gazzete notification. On January 4 and 5, they boycotted academic activities in colleges.
The three-day ‘cease work’ programme was announced from the Association’s general meeting on January 22.
