Along with Lucknow, teachers across the state, including Barabanki, Kanpur, Hardoi, Bareilly, Aligarh, Amethi, Pratapgarh, Rampur, Sonbhadra, Prayagraj, Gonda, Sultanpur, Deoria and Azamgarh, were demonstrated on Tuesday.
Under the banner of Ateva (ALL Teachers and Employees Welfare Association - ATEWA), district teachers, officers, officers, pharmacists, nursing staff, electricity department employees and personnel of other government departments were involved in this protest. The teachers said that the movement was started with the old pension. The government is not fulfilling their demand under any circumstances. In such a situation, there is no other way left other than the movement. Many issues like UPS are meant to distract attention, but teachers are still adamant on the demand for old pension.
The Ateva-Pension Bachao Manch submitted a memorandum addressed to the Prime Minister, demanding the restoration of the old pension scheme and the termination of privatization of government institutions. The teachers, employees and officers of the country are demanding restoration of the old pension scheme and the termination of privatization of government institutions. Ateva-Pension Bachao Manch submitted a memorandum addressed to the Prime Minister to the Collectorate. The organization has demanded the abolition of the new Pension Scheme (NPS) and Unified Pension Scheme (UPS). He says that these schemes are making the future of employees bleak. Due to this, resentment among crores of teachers, employees and paramilitary forces is increasing.
