Jalandhar, October 24
Unemployed teachers who have been protesting outside ex-Education Minister Vijay Inder Singla’s residence in Sangrur for the past nine months have now shifted to Cabinet Minister Pargat Singh’s house here.
After protesting outside Singla’s residence in Sangrur for nine months, members of various unions under the Berozgar Sanjha Morcha ended the stir on September 30 this year after Pargat succeeded the former.
Despite promises made by the Capt Amarinder Singh government of “ghar ghar naukri” and job allotment cards during the 2017 poll, teachers say they have been left high and dry even after four years. Unable to meet Pargat outside his residence on Saturday, members of the TET Pass Unemployed BEd Teachers Union declared that they would hold an indefinite dharna there from October 28. — TNS
