DUTA demands disbursal of salaries for MCD schoolteachers

New Delhi, February 21

The Delhi University Teachers Association (DUTA) today demanded that the North and East Delhi municipal bodies disburse salaries of corporation school teachers withheld “for many months”.

“The teaching community is shocked to learn that the municipal corporations of North and East Delhi have withheld payment of salaries of teachers employed in corporation schools for many months, thus driving these teachers to debt, despair and in some cases even death,” DUTA president Prof Rajib Ray said in a statement. – TNS
