In 1994, the government paid Rs 20 per period and allotted nearly 72 periods paying Rs 1,440 as a basic pay. Later, the government enhanced the amount and paid Rs 150 per period (Rs 10,800 for 72 periods) and at present the government is paying Rs 300 per period (Rs, 21,600 for 72 periods as a basic pay), he informed.

In each college, there are two part time junior lecturers teaching vocational courses taking more than 100 periods in a month. But the government is paying for only 72 periods, he alleged.

The government must pay Rs 37,100 to every part-time junior lecturer working in government junior colleges. But by showing full-time lecturers as part time in the record, the government is paying only Rs 21,600. Apart from that, the government has not paying them salaries for six months, he added.
