SHILLONG: Chief Whip of the Opposition Process Sawkmie has said the Congress will table a call attention motion in the Assembly on September 24 on the plight of SSA teachers in the state.
SSA teachers have been without salary for five months from April to August 2018. Also, they are yet to receive eight months’ arrears for July 2016 to February 2017.
The teachers had given time till September 19 for the government to release the dues.
“I don’t understand and we want a clear explanation from the government whether it has released the money to the teachers or not,” he said.
Criticising the step-motherly treatment of the Centre, Sawkmie said the BJP and NPP are working together at the Centre.
“It is sad that the state government supported by the BJP is not taking the matter seriously”, he said.
