Teachers in Meghalaya have set an Oct. 9 deadline, warning that failure to meet their dearness allowance and CPF payment demands will trigger a statewide strike.
On Wednesday, teachers across Meghalaya served an ultimatum to the state government, demanding payment of pending dearness allowance and CPF dues. They set Oct 9 as the deadline.
Represented by the Meghalaya Teachers Association, the educators argue that the arrears have been accumulating for months, affecting their livelihoods and undermining morale.
If the government fails to comply, the union has warned of a statewide strike that could disrupt schools and educational services across the state.
The state government has yet to respond publicly, but officials say they are reviewing the claims and will engage in talks with the teachers' representatives.
