Timely payment of wages and job security are basic rights, not privileges. We stand in solidarity with all Vocational Trainers and hope the authorities address their concerns at the earliest through meaningful dialogue and positive action.

Vocational Trainers have dedicated years of service to strengthening skill education and preparing students for employment, yet many continue to face delayed salaries and uncertainty regarding their future. Their demands are genuine and deserve immediate attention.

FROM REMOVAL TO RENEWAL.
FROM DEMOTION TO PROMOTION.

Is this the "JUSTICE" promised to Vocational Teachers before the Elections? @OmarAbdullah
@sakinaitoo

Instead of ending the exploitation of failed #VTPs, the government @CM_JnK has rewarded them #VTPs with a 1-year extension, increased their management cost from 10% to 12% and handed them more schools.

The exploiters #VTPs are being rewarded. The educators #VTs are being ignored.

CEOs and Directors have already recommended a dedicated job policy for Vocational Teachers and clearly stated that #VTPs have completely FAILED and should be REMOVED. The proposal is awaiting final approval, but no final decision has been taken yet. @OmarAbdullah
@sakinaitoo

How does a failed system get more schools, more money and more power, while the teachers who run the entire programme continue to suffer? @sakinaitoo @OmarAbdullah
@JKSamagra

If the issues of Vocational Teachers are not resolved within the coming days, we will launch an INDEFINITE MEGA PROTEST beginning from 29th June 2026.

We are prepared for protests. We are prepared for Detention. We are prepared for Jail.

What we are not prepared for is another year of Exploitation, Humiliation and Broken Promises.

The time for files and delays is over. The time for a decision has arrived.

A commendable decision by the Rajasthan High Court. Direct engagement of Vocational Trainers is a step towards fairness, stability, and quality skill education.

[J&K Vocational Trainers Welfare Association JKVTWA @JKVTWA]

A LANDMARK JUDGMENT FOR VOCATIONAL TRAINERS

​The Hon'ble Rajasthan High Court has delivered a historic judgment that goes to the very heart of the issues faced by Vocational Trainers. Striking hard at the current system, the Court took strong note of the severe hardships and exploitation arising under the failed #VTP model, emphasizing the direct responsibility of the Department toward those who have been serving in schools for years.

​In a definitive set of directives, the Hon'ble Court ordered the direct departmental Recruitment of all Vocational Trainers, the Direct Transfer of Salaries straight into their bank accounts and the immediate formulation of a dedicated Policy to safeguard their service conditions and future.

​This judgment is not merely a legal victory, it is a victory for dignity, job security, transparency and accountability. It recognizes that the true backbone of vocational education deserves state protection, structural respect and a stable livelihood.

​JKVTWA wholeheartedly welcomes and appreciates this visionary judgment. It sets a powerful national precedent and offers renewed hope to thousands of Vocational Trainers across the country who continue to fight for justice, security and the recognition they deserve.

Hon’ble Minister @dpradhanbjp Ji, while discussions on skilling and employability are encouraging, the reality of skill education in Jammu & Kashmir remains incomplete.

Vocational Trainers, who have been imparting skills in schools since 2016 and are the backbone of Skill India at the grassroots level, continue to work under a failed outsourced system through #VTPs. Despite repeated assurances and the vision of NEP 2020, we still await a comprehensive job policy, job security, fair salary structure, annual increments and #FREEDOM from the failed outsourcing model.

If skilling is to truly strengthen employability and educational outcomes, those delivering these skills must also be empowered, protected and recognized. Strengthening vocational education begins with strengthening Vocational Trainers.

We hope the ongoing collaboration between the Centre and J&K Government will address these long-pending issues and ensure dignity, stability and a sustainable future for the Vocational Trainers serving thousands of students across Jammu & Kashmir.

[Azad Bhat @Azadbhatcuk]

The continuous delay in salaries and arrears has pushed Vocational Trainers into severe financial hardship and mental stress. Despite rendering their services with dedication, trainers are repeatedly forced to wait for their meager salaries, which is highly unfortunate and

Accountability Over Empty Promises

​The directive of @JKSamagra samagra Shiksha (Dt: 02-01-2026) was clear: #VTPs must pay honorariums by the 5th or face #MoU termination. Yet, delays continue to jeopardize the livelihoods of our dedicated Vocational Trainers.

​This order was meant to punish bad agencies, not exploit educators. To save skill education in J&K, the administration must act NOW:

​Enforce the law: Terminate the #MoUs of chronic defaulters.

​Protect our trainers: Build a transparent system that guarantees on-time pay.

​Root out the problem: Eliminate failed third-party middlemen #VTPs to restore dignity to Vocational Trainers.

[J&K Vocational Trainers Welfare Association JKVTWA @JKVTWA]

EID IS COMING, BUT OUR SALARIES ARE STILL PENDING

​With the holy festival of Eid just days away, thousands of Vocational Trainers across J&K are left empty-handed. While the world prepares to celebrate, we are left begging the system for our own hard-earned meager salaries.

​This is not a one-time delay. Since 2016, Vocational Trainers have repeatedly suffered the same financial distress. Despite clear #MoU guidelines and repeated orders and directions issued by Samagra Shiksha and the Labour Commissioner due to persistent violations, #VTPs continue to disregard payment mandates and fail to release salaries by the 5th of every month. Ironically, despite violating conditions and directives time and again, they still continue to dictate terms as though they are above accountability. Alas!
​
​Despite rendering more than a decade of dedicated service to the Education Department, Vocational Teachers continue to work without job security, a clear policy framework, or basic service benefits and allowances. The real implementation of skill education has always depended upon the commitment and efforts of ground-level Vocational Teachers. In contrast, #VTPs have failed to demonstrate any meaningful contribution to strengthening the system. Their repeated inability to ensure timely salary disbursement reflects a long-standing pattern of inefficiency, raising serious questions about their relevance and role in vocational education.

​We earnestly request our Honorable CM @OmarAbdullah @CM_JnK and Honorable MoE @sakinaitoo to step in, hold these failing #VTPs accountable and RELEASE OUR PENDING SALARIES IMMEDIATELY so our families can celebrate Eid with basic dignity.

VTs are the architects of a skilled J&K. While the Delhi Government has set a brilliant precedent by increasing salaries of VTs to ₹38,100, we believe J&K will lead the way too.

High-quality vocational education deserves high-value recognition.
