SHILLONG, May.05: Five days after the state government has passed the order regarding revision of pay as per the recommendation of the Fourth Pay Commission, lower and upper primary school teachers are yet to receive the order.
Speaking to MEGHALAYA TIMES, KJDSTA organising secretary, Kular Khongjeerem, said that the reason for the delay was due to the rearrangement of various posts at the head centre in the state as well as at the district level with effect from April 1, 2010, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Deputy Inspector of Schools.
Teachers of the secondary and higher secondary sections have already received the order.
Khongjeeram said that with the rearrangement, the director of Elementary & Mass Education is now the director of School Education & Literacy and added that even the Inspector of Schools has been replaced with the designation District of School Education Officer and the Deputy Inspector in the district level by the Sub-Divisional School Education Officer.
