Thousands of school and college teachers on Wednesday protested against the Congress-led Meghalaya United Alliance government's "unresponsivea and "adamant attitude" towards their demands.
The teachers, under the banner Joint Action Committee of All Teachers Association ofAMeghalaya (JACATAM), held the protest near Raj Bhavan demanding 100 per cent enhancement of salary for ad hoc lower and upper primary teachers as well as for Hindi teachers.
The two teachers associations threatened to resort to extreme agitation from next week if the government failed to fulfill their demands.
