Jiribam, July 18: Frustrated with the State government\u2019s delay in appointing teachers of Jiribam Higher Secondary School as well as other government schools in Jiribam, the students of Jiribam Higher Secondary School blocked the NH-37 over the Jiribam Bridge at around 12.30 pm. They were later joined by other students\u2019 organisations in the agitation.<\/p>\n
Four students\u2019 bodies of Jiribam called off their agitation along the NH-37 after they were assured by the State government that their demands for the filling up of vacant post of teachers in various government schools in Jiribam would be addressed soon. Based on that assurance, the students\u2019 bodies relaxed their agitation from the midnight of 12th July up to 18th July whereas the government hasn\u2019t turned any of their words into action.<\/p>\n
As the government has not fulfilled their condition, the students\u2019 bodies resume their earlier form of agitation by blocking NH-37.<\/p>\n
Following the agitation on NH-37, the students\u2019 bodies stranded some vehicles plying on NH-37 at Leingangpokpi. The students\u2019 leaders also confronted security forces.<\/p>\n
Speaking with media persons, the students\u2019 leaders said that they are agitating for the rights of students in a democratic way whereas the security personnel misused their power over the students.<\/p>\n
The students\u2019 leaders have vehemently condemned the assault by security force to the students\u2019 leaders.<\/p>\n
