Info on Meeting held on 04.02.09

A meeting was held to discuss the anomalies regarding the new pay scale revision of Lecturers on 04.02.09. The response to the meeting was very poor and very few lecturers attended the meeting. However, the participants suggested representing to the UGC and MHRD for reduction of the anomalies in the pay scale of Lecturers/Asst Prof. and reduction in the pay gap between the Assoc Prof. and Asst Prof. They also suggested that promotion to the post of Reader be reduced to just 5 years rather than 12 years. MANUUTA is exploring the ways and means to represent these suggestions to the above authorities. MANUUTA is also waiting to receive further clarity regarding pay scales from the UGC so that some steps can be initiated.
