Not only that, the teachers and lecturers at the university have also declared that they will continue their agitation indefinitely. When will the strike be organized?
The strike by Teachers, lecturers & Professors for Sixth Pay Commission Implementation will be on Tuesday, 14th july 2009.

The demand is due to the pay difference of the state Teachers, lecturers & Professors with respect to their counterparts in the central government teaching institutes, which have already implemented the Sixth Pay Commission Recommendations for Teachers. Though the colleges will remain open, the teachers will be on strike.
Then, there are also some differences with respect to what Maharashtra state has implemented and what UGC or University Grants Commission has recommended. As per the news, the Maharashtra government did not make it mandatory for teachers to qualify NET/SLET exams. Later, when it was implemented in 2000, the teachers who joined between 1991 and 2000 were not required to pass these exams. So there is a descrepancy since these teachers who have not qualified the exams are not given promotions.
When it comes to other states, things appear to be better. Recently, there was news that The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to a school in the capital for not implementing the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission.
Let's hope that the issue settles down soon and the recommendations are implemented in Maharashtra, as it is affecting the studies of the students
