Temporary teachers to boycott Teachers’ Service Commission exam

KATHMANDU, Aug 15: Temporary Teachers’ Struggle Committee has decided to boycott the Teachers’ Service Commission (TSC) exam scheduled for coming August 19.

According to Committee Vice-Chair Jaya Narayan Dhakal, its members who have filled up the exam forms will boycott the exam, as per the decision of the Central Agitation Committee, until their demand for postponing the exam schedule by addressing certain conditions was met.

Besides, the Committee has warned to padlock the exam center if the government continues to ignore their demands. The agitation of temporary teachers is focused on piling up pressure on the government to reschedule the exam date as per the bilateral agreement reached on June 23.

Two of the agitators who are on a strike at Bhadrakali in the Capital since August 2 have been admitted to a hospital after their health condition deteriorated. RSS
