More than a dozen teachers were taken into custody near Karachi Press Club by police on Thursday for protesting against the government and demanding their rights. According to details, primary teachers including women from all over Sindh had gathered at the Karachi Press Club to demand payment of their salaries and other rights including promotion to grade 16 when police baton-charged the crowd and fired tear gas shells in an attempt to disperse protesters.
The action followed as the protestors tried to inch towards Bilawal House and hold a demonstration there. This is not the first time that these teachers are protesting and demanding their rights. Last month the teachers demanded that the provincial government grant them permanent status since they had cleared the NTS test.
