Leaders of the United Teachers’ Federation’s State committee are gearing up to stage a week-long State-wide “Poru Garjana” in support of their demand that the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS), introduced in December 2004 in the State, be repealed and the old pension system be brought back.
In a statement on Thursday, the federation president N. Venkateswarlu and general secretary K.S.S. Prasad urged government employees and teachers across the State to participate in the bike rallies proposed as part of the protest from April 18 to 25 and make their voices heard by the government.
