Members of MUTA and AUT protested near Alanganallur, demanding overdue salaries for lecturers in aided colleges. Over 300 participants called for the immediate release of Career Advancement Scheme benefits and arrears, which have not been properly implemented since a 2021 government order. MUTA president A.T. Senthamarai Kannan highlighted that eligible lecturers received CAS orders in 2022 but lacked further information. He noted that many staff in northern and western districts received their benefits, while others were left out. Despite previous protests, the state government has not addressed the educators' concerns. Protesters are urging authorities to take immediate action to implement the benefits and pay the owed salaries.
