Private MPO teachers 'March to Secretariat' program will begin at 8pm instead of 12pm, demanding various demands including housing and allowances.
The announcement was made by Delwar Hossain Azizi, Member Secretary of the Alliance, who is expected to nationalize the MPO education at the Central Shaheed Minar around 2pm on Tuesday (October 8).
“We will not return to the classroom until the notification of the festival allowance for the employees,” he said, “We will continue.
Delwar Hossain Azizi said the decision was made to implement these three demands in the presence of education advisors, secretaries and senior officials at a meeting held at the Ministry of Education on August 5. But it has not yet been effective.
“We have finished all the way of discussion. The decision has not been implemented. Now the decision has not been implemented. Now there is no new discussion in the ministry.
He also said that the intelligence agencies were in contact with the protesters. At the request of the police administration, the walk has been fixed at 5 pm.
Principal Azizi said, “If the Ministry of Education and Finance jointly informed that the demand was accepted and the notification would be given within two to three days-then we would postpone the journey towards the Secretariat.
He claimed that teachers, students, political and professional organizations across the country have expressed solidarity with the movement. “Now this is not just the teachers' movement, the people of Bangladesh agree with it,” he said.
Earlier, when the program was taken to remove the teachers during the program in front of the National Press Club on Sunday afternoon, the incident took place and sound grenades. This created tension in the area. Later, at the call of the leaders of the organization, the teachers took the position at the Shaheed Minar and from there, the movement announced continuous movement.
The teachers stayed under the open sky at the central Shaheed Minar in the capital overnight on Sunday and Monday. Some spend the night under the banner's head with plastic mat, some. They claim that the movement and movement will continue until the notification is done.
On the other hand, private MPO teachers from all over the country are currently observing a breakdown. Although they are regularly present in the school every day, they are not entering any classroom, they are not participating in the teaching activities. They continue to sit in the school's courtyard, teacher lounge or in the office.
Besides, teachers are also protesting with banner-placards in various places. Besides, the district and upazila level teachers are giving numerous posts in solidarity with the teachers living in Dhaka on social media.
