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.

On behalf of the Vocational Trainers of J&K, we warmly welcome Mr. Naveed Anjum as CAO, @JKSamagra.

We look forward to transparent financial management, timely salary disbursement & resolution of long-pending issues of VTs.
Wishing you a successful tenure ahead.

[Amit Mehra @Amit8Mehra]

Despite strong directives from Samagra Shiksha J&K warning VTPs of termination for delaying VT honorarium, delays continue. This exposes govt helplessness in enforcing MoUs.
@CM_JnK @sakinaitoo @JKSamagra Enough is enough; remove exploitative VTPs & recruit VTs directly! #EndVTPExploitation #JusticeForVTs @JKVTWA

PAB has approved the salary enhancement for Vocational Trainers in J&K, an imp. component of vocational education and the Skill India vision, yet the revised pay and arrears have remained pending for the past two years.Request Director @JKSamagra for release the same.@JKVTWA

.@CM_JnK, A stack of Samagra Shiksha funds walks away with a suitcase full of crores, laughing.
A vocational trainer is on his knees, begging for his ₹20,000 salary. This is not a cartoon.
This is the reality of #VTPs in 2025.

.@OmarAbdullah @CM_JnK, I wholeheartedly endorse the urgent appeal from the J&K Vocational Trainers Welfare Association in their recent post @JKVTWA.

Their voices echo a decade-long struggle against the exploitative #VTP system that has drained public funds while leaving dedicated vocational trainers unpaid for months, up to three in the case of LNJ Bhilwara, and failing to deliver on placements, internships, or skill development for our youth. Teachers truly build nations, as they rightly state, yet these intermediaries build only invoices.

It's time to dismantle this failed model. Direct recruitment through Samagra Shiksha @JKSamagra would ensure transparency, dignity for trainers, and efficient use of resources to empower J&K's students with real skills.I urge you, along with Hon'ble Education Minister @sakinaitoo, Chief Secretary @DullooAtal, and the team at @SchoolEdujkut, to prioritize the 2000 upcoming posts for direct engagement. Justice for vocational trainers means a stronger, more equitable future for Jammu & Kashmir's education landscape.#JusticeForVocationalTrainers #EndVTPsNow
With respect.

@JKVTWA is crying out for help, demanding that CM J&K @CM_JnK @sakinaitoo to reframe the policy and save thousands of vocational trainers across Jammu & Kashmir.
The essence of our Constitution is simple ,the voice of the vulnerable must be heard, and their rights must be protected.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS

Tejaswi Yadav is chosen as Leader of Opposition of Bihar by RJD

He needs to be strong and active on ground with right issues of the state

Keep ego aside, move on from defeats and learn from mistakes. @yadavtejashwi

[Amit Mehra @Amit8Mehra]

.@OmarAbdullah Sahib still has the opportunity to fulfill his promise of providing jobs. The Skilled Labour Force already exists within the system; it only needs to be properly placed, as done by other state governments.

But if the issue of vocational trainers in J&K is not even being brought to the table, then holding meetings and giving assurances serves no purpose. Please do not deceive @JKVTWA those who have been waiting with faith for justice. #JusticeForJKVT
