Over 20,000 teachers of various central universities today went on two-day strike demanding better service condition for the teaching community. Federation of Central Universities Teachers’ Association (FEDCUTA) had made a call in this regard opposing new service conditions being imposed by the University Grant Commission (UGC) and Ministry of HRD.
“We had no option but to go on strike as UGC is not ready to give an ear to our demands” Aditya Narayan Mishra, President, FEDCUTA, told fachcha.com. According to him several humiliating changes are being made in service condition of teachers without their consent, he adds. There are over 24 Central Universities in the country including Delhi University, JNU, Jamia, Aligarh University, BHU and others. Over 7000 teachers belong to Delhi University alone.
