Dr Waghodekar has raised very valid questions regarding teachers agitation. Teachers unions have been fighting only for teacher's monetary benefits and always opposing academic expectations.

I have a few queries:
Regards,
- Is the education quality deterioration an overnight phenomenon? Was the education quality fine during the period from 1947 to 2014?
- First time after independence, a Govt. of opposition party with majority votes has taken reigns in her hands just one year back. Is this Govt. totally responsible for the so called mess now shown to be?
- Like academic institutes, performance appraisal is a usual rather routine matter in all organizations. How come PA nonacademic when PA itself is the baby of academic?
- Can somebody enlighten me to what extent academic institutes have observed strictly the University Statues including that of Teacher's Performance?
- Can somebody enlighten me the role played by teachers' associations in improving quality of education?
- A series of issues is being raised since a couple of months one followed by another against the Govt. who has taken over just one year ago. Can you quote similar instances during the last 65 years? Almost nil, unheard, academics was never a public issue then.
- Do you think all the queries made above are nonacademic? Is not academic a part of life? Is there something like called nonacademic?

Subject: [MTC Global] Teachers participate in AIFUCTO-FEDCUTA Jail Bharo programme--Agitated by Government's apathy, thousands of teachers from across State and Central universities and colleges participated in the Jail Bharo Andolan under the banner of AIFUCTO-FEDCUTA to draw attention to deteriorating service conditions.
After Dharna at Jantar Mantar, where leaders representing different states of the country addressed the gathering, teachers courted arrest and were taken to the Police Station, Parliament Street. The public meeting and sloganeering continued inside the Police Station till they were released in the evening.
The action programme was to highlight the demands of constitution of the UGC Pay Review Committee, Release of Pension(GPF), Withdrawal of API, Stepping Up and Removal of Anomalies, Regularisation of ad-hocs and filling of posts as per proper GoI roster and Settling Ph.D. Net Issue.
Speakers pointed out that the non-Constitution of a UGC Pay Review Committee indicates the disregard of the Government for the specific concerns of the teaching community and the different nature of the service conditions required in universities and colleges. Implementation of Point Based Appraisal System for promotions, which is based on quantification of teaching and research work, is completely unacademic, has devalued teaching, adversely affected environment of holistic and collective growth of institutions.
It has become a way to deny promotions. Teachers from across universities shared how recent academic restructuring including semester system and CBCS have resulted in dilution of academic standards, hampered teaching-learning processes and harmed students' interest. These top-down "reforms" have failed to respond to the needs of the system. Skewed student-teacher ratio and ever increasing contractualisation of teaching posts have crippled universities and colleges. The teachers rejected Common CU Bill, 2013.
The attack on the service conditions and denial of permanent appointments, promotions, pension etc are all linked to the cutting back of Govt funding of Higher Education, which the Indian Govt has been doing under continuous pressure from private and foreign vested interests acting through the World Trade Organisation, which has been spearheading covert and overt trade deals to privatise vital areas like health and education.
The AIFUCTO and FEDCUTA strongly condemned the MHRD for its continuing refusal to meet them. This indicates the increasing erosion of democracy under this Government.
