Discriminatory Treatment to various category of Teachers in these Islands

Shri. Tapan Sen, Member of Parliament (CPI-M) in a letter addressed to Shri. Kapil Sibal, Minster of Human Resource Development, Govt. of India, has brought to his notice the discriminatory treatment meted out to teachers of various categories working in the Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands while giving effect to the recommendations of 6th Central Pay Commission in respect of their pay scales. Shri. Tapan Sen has requested the Minister to intervene in the matter. Forwarding a copy of the letter from the NGOs' Association, A & N Islands, Shri. Tapan Sen, M.P., said that the Association has long been representing on the above issues, requesting remedial measures.
It may be recalled that ever since the introduction of the 6th CPC recommendations, the NGOs' Association, A & N Islands has been protesting against the discriminatory features in the CCS (RP) Rules, 2008 wherein the upgraded pay has not been extended to various categories of teaching and miscellaneous teaching staff working under the Education Department like Headmasters, Physical Education Teachers, Librarians, Primary School Resource Teachers, Craft Instructors, Art & Music Teachers, Lab Assistants etc. This issue has already been included in the agenda items for the National Anomaly Committee set up by the Govt. of India.
