Demanding recruitment on a permanent basis to fill vacant posts of teachers of fine arts, physical education, music and theatre arts, members of All India Democratic Youth Organisation (AIDYO) staged a demonstration in front of the office of the Deputy Commissioner in Dharwad on Tuesday.
Leading the protest, the former principal of Halabhavi School of Fine Arts and senior artist Suresh Halabhavi expressed displeasure over the failure of the authorities to fill vacant posts.
He said that fine arts in existence from the ancient days are essential for the overall development of children and expansion of their mental horizons. And, these fine arts required assistance from the governments on a regular basis, he said and demanded immediate appointment to various posts.
