VADODARA, Nov 26: The members of the Vadodara City Primary Teachers’ Sangh submitted a memorandum to District Collector Anil Mukim on Thursday, urging him to put forward their demand seeking implementation of the Fifth Pay Commission recommendations to the State government.

The members of the Sangh, who took out a rally from the Gandhi Nagar Gruh to the Collector’s Office, claimed that though the Central government had already implemented the pay scales as per the government resolutions, the State government was yet to implement it.

Sandhya Bhagat of the Sangh said, “Our demands have not been looked into despite constant reminders to the state government authorities”.
