Fate of 772 contract basis teachers’ uncertain


IMPHAL, May 18: The fate of 772 teachers appointed on contract basis has been left uncertain. The Directorate of Education (Schools) of Manipur Government appointed in 2006 on contract basis since their services were required to teach students.

According to a source, the teachers were appointed under All Manipur Hill District Contract Basis Teachers’ Association (AMHDCBTA).

The state government appointed the teachers on contract basis in Jr. High schools and High schools located at Churachandpur, Ukhrul, Senapati, Chandel, Tamenglong and Sadar Hills.

The source further said that initially the teachers were appointed on contract basis for three months following which, their term of service was extended for four months.

Their term of service was later extended for six months after the expiry of the first term. The teachers appointed on contract basis in 2006 were made to teach in 2008. But their term of service on contract basis has not been extended since 2008.

On the other hand, it has not been brought to their notice whether they have been terminated from their service on contract basis or not.

The Director of Education (S) conducted a physical verification of teachers in 2011 after being left in such conditions and selected 772 teachers engaged on contract basis as genuine.

However their case is still pending though 772 teachers were approved during physical verification.

The answer to a query about the fate of the teachers was that their matter will be discussed later on after the problems of part-time teachers are resolved but no further action has been taken up yet.

Preparations to seek legal advice have been initiated to ascertain the fate of the teachers, according to sources.
