Leaders of various teachers’ associations have condemned the decision of the Andhra Pradesh Joint Action Committee (JAC) to postpone the ‘chalo Vijayawada’ protest by the government employees, teachers and pensionsers proposed on February 27.
A.P. United Teachers’ Federation (UTF) State president N. Venkateswarlu and general secretary K.S.S. Prasad said the issue was discussed in the executive meeting organised on February 25 (Sunday).
They said that teachers were upset that the JAC leaders decided to drop the plan without the government giving any clarity on the pending payments of ₹20,000 crore towards Provident Fund, Andhra Pradesh Government Life Insurance scheme and other heads.
