Teachers of public universities will form human chains across the country today (Sunday), demanding restructuring of the newly proposed national pay-scale, which they termed 'disgraceful and discriminatory'.
The university teachers have been demonstrating for long demanding immediate announcement of a separate pay-scale for them.
Earlier, Federation of Bangladesh University Teachers' Association (FBUTA) rejected the latest pay-scale and submitted separate memorandums to the finance minister and the education minister to restructure their salary grades.
To this effect, the teachers of the country's 37 public universities will hold peaceful demonstration on their respective university campuses at about 11:00 am, a press statement from the association said.
The teachers said in the new wage structure, their salaries were downgraded by two steps in comparison with the previous pay-scale.
