Following the indefinite shutdown of the government high school (GHS) Sakshi by Sakshi Students’ Union (SSU), which began August 16, 2016, the state government has finally conceded to the demands of the union to deploy maths and science teachers. In a press release, SSU vice president, P.N. Hongba Shemphang, has appreciated and thanked the department of school education for redeploying maths and science teachers vide government order dated August 22, 2016. The union, however, expressed apprehension regarding the implementation of the government order, saying going by past experience “such orders have not materialised.” Therefore, SSU has requested all the teaching and non-teaching staff including the two new appointees to be present at the school campus on August 29, 2016 at 8am. Thereafter, the SSU said it would decide whether to call off the agitation or not as the union was “dead serious to rebuild the GHS Sakshi which has been neglected for last 25 years.”
