MALDA, Nov. 3: The Left Front backed four organisations for primary teachers jointly took out a rally in English Bazaar town today and staged a demonstration in front of the district inspector of schools (primary).
The leaders of the primary teachers submitted a deputation to the DI (primary) demanding immediate solution of PTTI (Primary Teachers Training Institute) row including seven other demands.
The leaders pointed out that the future of thousands of the trained teachers, appointed in primary schools since 1995-96 session, had become uncertain following the recent High Court order on the matter.
“If such situation continues the primary education system would crumble down," the leaders said.
One of the leaders said that around 300 students from the district who had received admit card prior to sit in the scheduled final examination were idle with no avenue left for them at present.
"We do not have any idea about NCTE (National Council for Teacher Education). Both state and central administrations are responsible for the present crisis,” said Mr Tapan Chaki, district secretary of Sara Bangla Prathamik Shikshakh Samiti.
The CPI-M backed primary teachers’ organisation leader, Mr Sadhan Pal demanded that the government should continue paying salary to the primary teachers.
