The government had recently conducted a special TET, the result of which was declared on October 3, 2021. Almost 96 per cent of the Sanyogi Siksha Karmis who had appeared for this special TET, failed to qualify. Hence, all the organizations which held the meeting today, demanded that another special TET should be conducted for the reappointment of the Sanyogi Siksha Karmis.

The organizations have given the government a deadline till December 20, 2021, to inform whether another special TET will be conducted or not. They alleged that they had approached the State Education Minister many times with the demand to reappoint the Sanyogi Siksha Karmis.

However, no steps have been allegedly taken in this regard despite assurance. They said that if the government does not fulfil their demand, they will be compelled to stage protest at Dispur Last Gate on December 22, 2021. In addition, they will also stage a protest in front of the Raj Bhavan on January 10, 2022 in support of their demand.
