JAMMU, Sept 28: Monthly meeting of All J&K ReT Teachers Forum was held today at Exhibition Ground Jammu under the chairmanship of State president Vinod Sharma and State vice president Younis Rahi.
The meeting was attended by State apex body members besides district president of the Forum, who discussed the issues of ReT teachers.
Vinod Sharma, on behalf of ReT Teachers Forum, urged the State and Central Government to release funds under SSA so that regularized ReT Teachers under the scheme may get their salary, which is pending for the last several months. These ReT Teachers are without salary for last three to eight months in different districts of the State and are facing a lot of problems, he said adding that on the one hand many ReT families have become victims due to recent flood situations in the State while on the other hand they have been facing financial crunch due to non release of salary.
It is difficult for these teachers to meet out their both ends when the prices are rising high day by day while the festival season has also begun, he further said.
The provincial president Rajesh Singh Jamwal, in his speech, appealed the Chief Minister and the Dy Chief Minister to intervene personally in this regard so that these teachers may get there salaries before Eid and other festivals.
Others who also spoke on the occasion, included Lekh Raj Parihar, Jasbir Singh, Joginder Kumar, Inderjit Singh, Ravi Sharma, Rajinder Singh, Ravinder, Ranjit, Surjeet, Pankaj, Mahesh, Om Parkash, Shabir Ahmed and others.
