The Executive Officers, Academic Sub-ordinary and University Executive Staff Union Joint Committee said they had earlier requested for an increase in wages but had not received it. They had met with the Salary Cadre Commission last year and then on February 2 discussed a proposal to increase wages but had not received a response.
The union’s Co-President R.M Chandrapala said in the wake of increased fuel prices a salary hike was needed. “During discussions the commission assured us that it would compile a report in 14 days to come to some sort of solution. However nothing has been done yet,” Chandrapala said.
