Srinagar, Sep 05: CPI (M) leader Mohamad Yousuf Tarigami on Tuesday said that teachers deserve rightful status in society and adequate wages.
“Let us all celebrate Teachers’ Day with determination to recognise the importance of teachers. We at the same time express our determination to resist the nefarious designs of the government to reduce education to commercialism & means of spreading communal & regional discord,” he said in a statement.
“We also condemn all those schemes that make education a medium of spreading obscurantism and prejudice. Our teachers deserve rightful status in society and adequate wages,” he added.
