madan Mohan Jha spoke in support of teachers
madan Mohan Jha said that nitish kumar had said that grant amount should be given, do not delay it. But due to the officials, these teachers are not able to get the grant amount. The only reason for the delay in the grant amount is the officials. The decision is taken in front of the Chairman of the Legislative Council, the Hon'ble deputy chief minister and all the members. It is agreed that the grant should be given to these teachers on time, but still it is not given.
The MLC said that where is the delay and where is the problem. This has to be seen. In the matter of education, the officials have also ignored the instructions of chief minister nitish kumar many times. It has been seen that Nitish Kumar's statement came in both the houses on the issue of education but the officials ignored it. The demand of these teachers today is absolutely correct.
Subsidy amount of teachers stopped since 2016
At the same time, a teacher sitting on the dharna said that we have not received the grant amount since the year 2016.
