To,
The Hon’ble Chief Minister, Punjab
The Minister of School Education, Punjab
Civil Secretariat, Chandigarh
Respected Sir/Madam,
I am writing this appeal with a heavy heart to bring to your immediate attention a grave injustice within our state’s education department.
A dedicated Computer Teacher, who served the Punjab Government with unwavering commitment for 20 long years, has recently passed away. Despite having a regular appointment and spending two decades shaping the digital future of our students, his family now stands at a crossroads of financial ruin. They are being denied the standard death-cum-retirement benefits (DCRG), family pension, and ex-gratia grants that are naturally accorded to other government teachers.
The Core of the Injustice:
* Two Decades of Service: This teacher gave his youth and his professional life to the state’s mission of "Digital Punjab."
* Discriminatory Treatment: It is heartbreaking that after 20 years of "regular" service, a teacher is treated as a "second-class" employee upon death. The lack of a pension and social security for Computer Faculty is a violation of the principle of "Equal Pay for Equal Work" and the right to a dignified life for their dependents.
* Family in Crisis: While other government employees leave behind a safety net for their children and spouses, this teacher’s family has been left with nothing but grief and debt.
Our Prayers to the Government:
* Immediate Financial Assistance: Grant an immediate ex-gratia payment to the bereaved family to cover their urgent needs.
* Implementation of Full Benefits: Treat the service of Computer Faculty on par with the Education Department's regular cadre for the purpose of family pensions and death benefits.
* Compassionate Appointment: Provide a government job to one eligible member of the family to ensure their long-term survival.
The Computer Teachers of Punjab have been the backbone of our modern education system. To deny their families a livelihood after 20 years of service is not just an administrative lapse; it is a moral failure.
We urge you to intervene personally and ensure that this family receives the dignity and financial justice they deserve.
With Hope and Expectations,
Computer Teachers Punjab
