NONGSTOIN: The All Meghalaya Adhoc Lower Primary School Association (AMALPSA) has decided to go on an indefinite hunger strike from November 22 protesting the State government’s failure to fulfill its various demands.

This was informed in a press note issued by the general secretary of the Association R S Khardewsaw here on Monday.

Khardewsaw said that the AMALPSA had staged a protest in Shillong on November 15 but Chief Minister Dr Mukul Sangma and Education Minister R C Laloo claimed their ignorance about the protest. The demands of the AMALPSA include regularisation of services of 1,116 adhoc teachers, payment of salary in accordance with the 4th Pay Commission recommendation, recruitment of additional teachers and allotment one classroom for each class.
