The association urged the Education Minister to constitute a committee to ascertain the reasons for such delay . The association also requested Labour Commi-ssioner to initiate action against the guilty for non payment of salary to Contractual Lecturers/ Teaching Assi-stants working in Colleges. Others who spoke on the occasion include Suresh Sharma, Bindu Jamwal, Jyoti Sadotra, K.K Verma, Harpreet Kour, Rashpal Singh, Arun Sharma and Shahnawaz.
