"Don't want Chinese salaries, implement the 7th Pay Commission": Our salary is worse than that of a peon; teachers stage protest in Gardanibagh.

"We are state employees, but we don't get the same respect. Our salary is worse than that of a peon. All state employees are getting the 7th pay scale, but not teachers. We don't want this Chinese salary. The government should implement the 7th pay scale. If it doesn't happen, we will shut down schools in the coming times. The movement will be intensified." These are the words of the teachers who are protesting at a sit-in. They are protesting in Gardanibad, Patna.
