DUTA asked Delhi government to renew the appointments of the ad-hoc teachers

In a letter to the Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, Delhi University Teachers Association or DUTA has urged to renew the appointment of the ad-hoc teachers in various colleges of the Delhi University. The teachers’ body, in a letter said “the insensitive and unimaginative manner of implementation of EWS reservation in teaching posts' in Delhi University 'threatens the livelihood of ad-hoc teachers who have for years shouldered the responsibility of the academic and corporate life of our colleges”. "While permanent appointments are yet to begin, the actions of the Central Government, the UGC and the University administration has ominous consequences for the talented but vulnerable young faculty," the letter said. The organization also wrote that the permanent threat to the livelihood of these teachers lies in creating additional teaching posts along with increasing the students intake. "Securing teachers' livelihood and maintaining educational standards are co-determining. The UGC has failed to appreciate this while allocating funds for additional teachers and non-teaching staff. It has allocated what can be described as a token sum that will be academically inadequate," the organisation said. In its letter,. "We also reiterate our demand that the Delhi Government release the mandatory 5% funding to the other partially funded colleges in its fold. The CAG has also pointed out that payment is due in many colleges. Non-disbursal of funds on time severely affects the academic and administrative functioning of these colleges," the letter said.
