Headmasters’ union punjab threatens protest

Jalandhar, December 14
Members of the Government School Headmasters’ Union today warned that if the government will play with the quota promotions from post of headmaster to principals, then headmasters across the state will hold protest.

Speaking at a press conference here today, headmasters said, “To stop the process of promotions, the government is now talking about verification of certificates after seven years of their jobs.”

They said, “They have written to Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal to look into the matter of checking of certificates, which is a ploy to stop their promotions.”

They said while on one hand people were being promoted to key official posts in the Education Department straight from the posts of lecturers, on the other hand, teachers having spent seven years on the post of headmasters were required to get their certificates checked.

They said as per civil writ petition 19400-2012, these promotions were ordered to be conducted by January 31, 2014, as per the orders of the Punjab and Haryana High Court issued on 23 July 2013.

They said if the government does not promote them as per their experience and requisite quota, they will not be afraid of knocking the doors of the court again.

State president of the union Brijmohan Singh Bedi, Ishwar Chander, Anita Arora and Madan Gopal Singh were present on the occasion.
