Normal functioning of Manipur colleges has been affected for the third day today as college teachers stage sit-in demonstration in Imphal on Thursday demanding implementation of the 7th Pay Commission & UGC Regulations for Govt teachers in the State.
The Federation of Government College Teachers’ Association, Manipur has launched a series of agitations starting September 24 for fulfillment of their demands.
The agitations continue despite Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh’s assurance that their
demand for implementation of 7th Pay Commission would be addressed through discussion.
