Shimla, April 19

The Himachal Government College Teachers’ Association (HGCTA) has urged the government to regularise the services of teachers appointed through the State Public Service Commission and have completed three years of service on April 1.

The eligible contract college teachers appointed on the recommendation of the State Public Service Commission should be regularised from the due date and not from the date of issuing of notification as the process could be delayed due to the prolonged lockdown, said RL Sharma, president of the union, in a letter to the Education Minister.

These teachers were appointed on the condition that they would be regularised after three years of service, he pleaded.— TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
