In a joint press release issued by JKTF UT President Sheikh Ashraf , Gen Secretary Mir Bashir Ahmed, Vice President Mehraj-ud-Din Zargar, Rafaqut Hussain Malik, Chief Spokesperson Tahir Ahmad Sofi, and others, the Forum leaders have reiterated the demand to include ReT teachers in the ATD process, implement PTR-based rationalization to ensure subject-wise teacher availability in all schools, especially primary institutions and strengthen the student-teacher ratio norms in remote and under-resourced areas of J&K.
