The teaching and non-teaching staff of privately managed, government-aided colleges continued to protest for the fifth day on Sunday. They are protesting over the delay in implementation of central service rules for teachers and 6th Pay Commission for non-teaching staff at privately managed, aided colleges.

Their Joint Action Committee (JAC) said more than 500 employees of Chandigarh colleges, along with 200 students, held massive demonstrations, followed by a rally on Sunday. “The JAC and student leaders condemned the utter callous and insensitive attitude of the Chandigarh administration. Student leaders from various colleges warned that if the administration’s apathy continues, more than 10,000 students will hit the streets,” JAC said in a statement.
