Teachers of government-run medical colleges in Gujarat went on a strike on Wednesday, accusing the administration of failing to fulfill its assurance about their demands.
Hundreds of professors and lecturers affiliated to the Gujarat Medical Teachers Association (GMTA) joined in the protest.
GMTA members had proceeded on strike last Friday demanding pay hike among other things but withdrew it hours later after the government promised to find a solution. We had a high-level meeting with the government s representatives on May 7, and we were happy that our demands were heard and the attitude of the government was positive. But we have not yet received any written proof of which demands have been accepted by the government.
