Imphal, Sept 28: Former Chairman of ADC Senapati, R.S Henry today said that the cancellation of the contract Primary Teacher by Tribal Affairs and Hills Commissioner T Pamei Pamei is unacceptable and must revoke immediately.
Speaking to the media persons at Manipur Press Club, R.S Henry Hiilii said that according to section 29(4) of the Manipur Hill Area District Council Act 1971, clearly stated the appointment of primary teachers at hill districts, but the department of Tribal Affairs and Hills had cancelled all the appointment orders of the contractual primary teachers by declaring as null and void without considering the provision of the Manipur Hill Area District Council Act.
Declaring as null and void to the appointment orders which was issued by the then Chief Executive Officer of the ADC, Senapati, Kh Biramani and Chairman R.S Henry Hiilii is strongly condemnable and unacceptable and must be revoked without any condition, he added.
R.S Henry Hiilii also said that his aim is to promote schools and education to the hill districts of Manipur and not to go against the state government for the cancellation of the orders of the teachers.
Senapati District Council will shortly organise a meeting to establish around 50 new schools at the hill districts, he added.
R.S Henry Hiilii further said that many teachers have been appointed at the valley areas but not a single at the hill districts.
Supporting the ongoing economic blockade by contractual teachers under ADC, Senapati, contract teachers in 6 hill districts will support the agitation, R.S Henry Hiilii asserted.
R.S Henry Hiilii is the former Chairman for ADC Senapati during 2010 to 2015 and currently he is a member of the ADC, Senapati.
