“Many a times I paid entry fee from my pocket for many competitions. During NBA and NAAC accreditation, I use to stay till 8-9 PM in the evening. We worked on Sundays too. Juniors were paid more than me! I was clueless. I couldn’t understand what mistake I was doing. Entire college knew what I was doing but our principal was not ready to acknowledge it,” said the teaching professional.
Consequently, he resigned. In the post, the man stated that the principal wasn’t ready to discuss anything with him without the presence of the HOD. “This HOD always supported 3-4 faculty and he was delegating difficult tasks to rest of us. I was fed up with this system and resigned recently. Nobody asked why I was resigning and nobody asked me to stay!” said the man.
He also added that he wasn’t paid EPF. “Recently salary structure was changed. DA was reduced from 115% to 30% and remaining 85% was added to other allowances. This reduces my gratuity by at least 50%! Honesty and loyalty have no meaning in this world,” wrote the professor.
Netizens empathised with the teaching professional. “It is sad that this has happened to you. This is injustice, I thought educational institutions are safe and free from these kind of practices. This world is becoming cruel and evil every day. No value for good people. I believe now you are in a new Job doing better and mentally fine,” said one.
