Ludhiana: All members of Arya College Teachers Unit (ACTU) staged a protest at the college on Thursday. ACTU president Parminder Singh Bhogal said the officiating principal and the management committee had given no positive response to the ongoing struggle since the past three months. “Despite talks, there was no outcome on issues of the 7th Pay Commission and Career Advancement Scheme for promotion. The problem of unauthorised withholding of salaries, seniority issues and the arbitrary transfer of staff, etc. were raised and the same have been notified through various resolutions from time to time. The authorities did not pay heed to the demands,” he added. ACTU general secretary Raman Nayyar said, “If our demands are still not heeded to, the struggle will continue.”
