Meghalaya’s SSA non-teaching staff to begin indefinite protest from tomorrow

23

Shillong, July 30: The All Meghalaya SSA Non Teaching Staffs Association (AMSSANTSA) will begin its indefinite sit-in-demonstration from July 31, demanding the state government to enhance the salary of the non-teaching staff.

A leader of the association informed on Tuesday that permission has been granted by the district administration to the SSA non-teaching staff to hold the sit-in-demonstration indefinitely at the Malki ground from Wednesday.

“We have unanimously decided to stage an indefinite sit-in demonstration from tomorrow till the government is ready to fulfil its promise to enhance our salary, which has been pending since 2016,” the association said in a statement issued recently

The non-teaching staff include those working right from the cluster level, block level, district level and state level under the office of the Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA), State Education Mission Authority of Meghalaya.

The association also reminded that the education minister Rakkam A Sangma, in his reply in the State Assembly in 2023, had informed that the department had already sent the file relating to the proposal for enhancing the salary of SSA non-teaching staff to the finance department but unfortunately till date nothing has been done in this regard.

“This clearly shows that he (Rakkam) was only making a false promise/assurance just to fool the members of the state Assembly. However, the non-teaching staff are prepared to fight for their rights,” it said while adding that the indefinite sit-in demonstration is not to protest against the state government but it is to “demands for our rights”.
