Protesters say they are put to tremendous mental agony
The strike by the staff, including 40 doctors, of the Mahatma Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Dental Science (MGPGI), to protest against non-payment of salary for the last two months, has entered the third day on Wednesday.
The staff numbering around 200, on Wednesday, abstained from work and staged a protest in front of the college demanding immediate payment of salary.
M. R. Ramesh, President, Faculty Association of MGPGI, said the staff and their family members have been put to tremendous mental agony due to non payment of salary.
The government had not implemented the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations for the staff, though the new pay scale was given to staff of government colleges. The MGPGI was ignored because it was run by a society, he added.
