Admit children till Cl VII free of cost: CCSU

Confederation of Chang Students’ Union (CCSU) has demanded that admission for children from nursery up to class VII must be free of cost as per the Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2006 at schools established under its purview. 

CCSU president C Pongsu and general secretary Ebou Naset in a release also insisted that admission must be done within 10 days from the date the State government’s notification was issued and warned of initiating stern action against those schools delaying in resuming classes for the academic session as per the government’s notification.
They also asserted that CCSU would not entertain any proxy teacher under its purview under any circumstances and asked all teachers to return to their respective places of posting on or before March 5.
Further, CCSU prohibited any form of taxation on employees, contractual workers, etc, of educational institutions within its jurisdiction based on the government’s notification in this regard. Urging employees of all government departments under its purview to be at their work stations, the confederation cautioned that if anyone was found neglecting in performance of his duties, it would take necessary action.
