Teachers of junior colleges and aided schools across the state went on a day’s token strike on Tuesday, to press for pay parity with central government teachers. Also on strike, albeit an indefinite one, were teachers of degree colleges, protesting non-implementation of the Sixth Pay Commission scales. The strikes, coupled with heavy rains, disrupted classes in colleges and aided schools in the city.
While most degree college teachers were on strike at Jai Hind College, Churchgate, junior college teachers reported for work. It was the same at KC College. As a mark of protest, in some colleges like St Xavier’s College, Dhobi Talao, teachers attended college and signed the register but did not teach. “Only 15% of staff and students made it to college today,” said St Xavier’s principal Fr Frazer Mascarenhas. At Wilson College, Chowpatty, while degree college teachers were on strike, junior college teachers came to help out with the admissions but stayed away from lectures.
