UDHAMPUR, Oct 2: Monthly meeting of Jammu Kashmir Teachers’ Joint Action Committee (JKTJAC) was held at Udhampur under the leadership of UT President Vinod Sharma and District President Lekh Raj Parihar, who sought the resolution of long pending issues of the teachers appointed under ReT scheme.
While addressing the meeting, Vinod Sharma demanded comprehensive transfer policy for teachers appointed under ReT scheme, inclusion of 5 years ReT period for seniority benefits, DPC of Teachers to Masters, regularisation of left out ReTs who have completed their 5 years ReT period for seniority benefits, conversion of left out RRETs to Teachers Grade II/III so that they may get their salaries, release of more than 2 years salary and other arrears of Teachers and Masters which require permission of Finance Department, conversion of Head Teachers posts into non plan posts of Masters and Old Pension Scheme in favour of NPS employees of the UT.
He also raised the issue of rationalization of teachers where department is preparing the lists with PTR as 1:15 without considering the minimum number of teachers in the middle and primary schools. He said that JKTJAC is not against the rationalisation of teachers but the process adopted by the department is not for the welfare of the poor children studying in the Government schools and this will have a negative impact on their studies. He appealed the Principal Secretary School Education to intervene personally in the matter and review the PTR ratio by providing minimum of two teachers in the Primary Schools and minimum of 5 teachers in the middle schools. He warned that if the department does not review the PTR in rationalisation process, they will be forced to come on the roads for the welfare of the students.
