Government college teachers in Tamil Nadu have announced a state-wide protest on Thursday against the government’s decision to restrict interim pension for employees with 10 to 18 years of service to ₹10,000.

In a statement, S. Suresh, general secretary, Tamil Nadu Government College Teachers’ Association, demanded the immediate withdrawal of a letter issued by the Finance Department on September 11 restricting the pension for everyone to a flat rate of ₹10,000, apart from the Dearness Allowance (DA) payout. “From Group D employees to college professors, the letter has put everyone in the same bracket. This goes against principles of natural justice,” Mr. Suresh observed.
