- Stemming from the issue of Nagaland Cabinet’s decision to
regularise 147 contractual posts of assistant professors and librarians, the
dialogue is being organised in response to the state government’s continued
silence following the expiry of a requisition deadline set earlier this month.
- The dialogue will focus on the requisition of the
contentious 147 assistant professor and librarian posts to the Nagaland Public
Service Commission (NPSC), the right to equal opportunity, transparency, fair
recruitment, and open competition.
- CTAN and NNQF have extended an invitation to all concerned
citizens to not only come and support but also share their advice.
