Dimapur, May 1 (EMN): The Nagaland Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan Teachers’ Association (NSSATA) on Tuesday met the advisor to School Education and the department officials headed by the principal secretary and the director at the advisor’s office in Kohima to discuss about the ultimatum served on April 23 by the teachers’ association.
The NSSATA issued a press release on Monday informing about the meeting. “The association, while acknowledging the government’s effort to take responsibility and for pursuing the matter with sincerity, the discussion could not produce any concrete solution nor could any assurance be given by the government to the teachers’ association.
“Therefore, the association is left with no other option but to initiate the first phase of agitation as decided earlier, in the form of pen-down strike. The first phase of agitation will commence from 02-05-18 till further direction. The Association directs all its members to strictly adhere to the resolution passed,” it informed.
Also, it has expressed its regret for the inconvenience caused and has appealed for support from ‘all right thinking citizens and organisations’.
