PTU non-teaching staff to hold protest today

Kapurthala, January 22
The Universities and Education Board Employees Federation, Punjab and Chandigarh, will join a protest to be organised by the PTU Non –Teaching Employees Union on the university campus on Thursday.

The federation took the decision after the PTU Vice-Chancellor allegedly ignored a communication, in which the office-bearers of the federation had sought time from him for a meeting, to sort out the problems of the union.


In a letter to the PTU Vice-Chancellor, the federation president and secretary, Darshan Singh and Pawandeep Singh, respectively, said that they had sought time for a meeting but the VC ignored their request. They have informed the Vice-Chancellor that they would hold a demonstration along with the PTU Non –Teaching Employees Union members on January 23.

The PTU Non–Teaching Employees Union had been protesting against the university authorities for not promoting them even after 13 to 14 years of services. The association has been demanding cancellation of advertisements of PIT/PIM and PTU regarding new appointments, promotion to C and D Category staff, a check on the misuse of delegated financial powers of PTU officers, termination of services of Adhoc / fixed officers, including the ATPO, consultants and counselor of university, check on the payments made to trusts/societies and others.
