President deceived us - university lecturers

(Srilankamirror) - University lecturers have alleged the president has deceived them without giving a pay hike through the budget, as promised. President of the University Teachers Association Dr. Nirmal Ranjith Devasiri said they had abandoned union action a few months back on the basis of the promise given by the president.

 The president had promised to implement the pay hike proposals through 2012 budget, he said.

 In this situation, the association’s executive committee will meet on November 24 and decide on the course of action, said Dr. Devasiri.
