The Nagaland Planning Machinery Service Association (NPMSA) Wednesday said it suspended its pen-down strike after two days, following an assurance of the state government to take up their demands in the next Cabinet meeting.

Demanding that the state government remove the post of OSD (Skill Development) from the cadre post of the Nagaland Planning Machinery Service Rule, 2019, the NPMSA began the pen-down strike on Tuesday.

Requesting the NPMSA to call off the agitation, Chief Secretary Temjen Toy in a written statement said the matter will be taken up in the next Cabinet meeting.

Responding to the appeal, the association held an emergency meeting and resolved to "temporarily suspend" the agitation, NPMSA president Imlikokba Longkumer told PTI here.

 

"In the event of failure of the government to remove the post of OSD (Skill Development) from Schedule I and II of the Nagaland Planning Machinery Service Rules 2019, in the next cabinet meeting, the Association would be compelled to resume the agitation," Longkumer said.
