Jhenidah Correspondent :
At around 1500 none government teachers and lecturers of secondary schools and colleges brought out a demonstration and formed a big human chain at Post office intersection of Jhenidah district town on Saturday morning demanding pay scale with the government employees.
About 1500 teachers of 400 institutions brought out a rally and demonstration in Jhenidah Post office intersection demanding pay scale from July, 15.
In the rally some discussants spoke. Of them Jhenidah district teachers association president Md. Mohiuddin and Bangladesh College and university teachers’ association president Subroto Mollik delivered respective speech at the meeting.
Jhenidah district teachers’ association president Md. Mohiuddin told that the none government teachers are deprived financially. They get a little amount of house rent and only one time scale. No increment is given to the teachers annually. They get only basic salary which is quite impossible to maintain their families. A senior teacher gets only Tk 13,465.
He told in the rally that if their pay scale is not declared urgently with the government employees they will pronounce tougher programme. All the schools and college will be locked under key until their demand is met.
Bangladesh College and university teachers’ association president Subroto Mollik echoed the same sentiment.
