Protest held against deprivation of education

IMPHAL Feb, 8: Decrying the deprivation of education in government schools due to the ongoing agitations of COTA demanding the implementation of 6th revised pay, the government school students of the state under the aegis of All Manipur Government High and Higher Secondary Students’ Coordination Committee staged a sit-in-protest demonstration today at CC Higher Secondary School, Imphal.

Speaking to media-persons today, the convenor of the coordination committee Konthoujam Herojit stated the government school students have long been deprived of education due to the impasse between the COTA and the state government. The concerned authority should try to bring an amicable solution to this stalemate, he enjoined.

Herojit further asserted that the students would launch stern agitations if the tussle between the COTA and state government is not solved as soon as possible.
