Expecting a breakthrough and postive development in Vts issues/ demands.Govt is working positively to resolve issues.Resolution of issues are under active consideration @JKVTWA
A human tragedy is not a political football 💔
Bashir Ahmad (VT), reportedly died on 2 October 2026 amid unpaid salary. Now, instead of addressing the crisis, our Edu. Minister is shifting responsibility to the previous LG administration.
Deliver justice.Take responsibility‼️
Vocational trainers in Srinagar continued their protest for the 23rd consecutive day. The protest comes as the @OmarAbdullah led government completes two years in office in J&K. @JKVTWA@VocTraAP@VTA_MP@sakinaitoo@JKNC_
J&K’s Vocational Trainers have been protesting for 21 days, demanding justice and the fulfilment of their demands.
I appeal to CM Jnb @OmarAbdullah and Education Minister Mohtrma @sakinaitoo to intervene in the matter and resolve their grievances at the earliest.

An administrative Experiment to place Vocational Trainers under private companies, in clear violation of the order issued by the then MHRD (now MoE), has turned into 11 years of exploitation, uncertainty and suffering. We gave 11 precious years of our youth to the School Education Department, built vocational education into a successful programme across J&K and delivered remarkable results. Yet, we remain deprived of job security, dignity, recognition & the benefits we rightfully deserve.
The cost of this injustice has been heartbreaking. We lost our colleague, Bashir Ahmad, to a heart attack amid our ongoing struggle, leaving behind his wife, three children, an elderly mother & a sister, with an uncertain future.
How much more must we sacrifice to prove our worth?
The Directors of School Education & Chief Education Officers have already submitted their recommendations supporting the removal of private companies. What, then, is preventing the Government from implementing these recommendations?
A wrong decision taken by the previous government must not become a permanent punishment for an entire generation. We voted for the present government with the hope that historical injustices would be corrected, not continued.
Today marks the 20th consecutive day of our peaceful protest, yet 2,187 Vocational Trainers continue to wait for justice.
We appeal to Hon'ble CM @OmarAbdullah and Education Minister @sakinaitoo to intervene personally, implement the recommendations of the Directors & CEOs, abolish the exploitative #VTP system and provide a dignified Job Policy for Vocational Trainers.
We are not asking for charity. We are asking for justice for 11 years of dedicated service.
Let the mistake of yesterday not destroy the future of tomorrow.

weak administrative head corrupts or disables the entire efficiency of the department, as subordinates mirror the leader's flawed execution.He who hesitates to execute a bad decision is still better than he who cannot make any decision at all.

🚨 JUSTICE FOR VOCATIONAL TRAINERS OF J&K!
Vocational Trainers have been on strike for 17 days, demanding a job policy, job security, direct engagement and timely salaries. Their prolonged suffering and reports of extreme distress demand urgent Government intervention. The reported death of Bashir Ahmad, a VT from North Kashmir, is deeply saddening.
We appeal to Hon’ble CM Shri Omar Abdullah Ji, Education Minister Ms. Sakina Masood Itoo Ji, Secretary SED Shri Ram Niwas Sharma, IAS, and Director Samagra Shiksha to resolve their genuine demands without further delay.
No more uncertainty—ensure job security, dignity and justice!
ATA JK, under Chairperson Ms. Mrignayani Slathia, stands firmly with Vocational Trainers.

Joined the vocational trainers in Srinagar today, who have been protesting for the last 16 days. It is deeply saddening to see a government remain so indifferent and silent towards the hardships and grievances of its people.
I stand in solidarity with the vocational trainers and their demand for justice.
@JKVTWA
Joined the protesting Vocational Trainer at lalchowk for their genuine demands and against the outsourceing of talent and hardwork.
We stand by every victim of the system.

Education Minister of Jammu & Kashmir, if vocational trainers who shaped and guided students are treated as “nobody,” then we need to seriously question the system.
Skills matter, but so do the people who impart those skills. Vocational Trainers have contributed to students’ learning, career guidance and employability, yet their years of service cannot simply be erased.
Madam, the issue is not whether skilled people deserve jobs. The real issue is whether the system has treated its Vocational Trainers fairly.
If the VTP system has failed to protect those who delivered vocational education on the ground, the responsibility lies with the system, not with the trainers who served it.
Respect the trainers. Recognise their contribution. Correct the system. @JKVTWA
#Watch | J&K Vocational Trainers’ Protest Enters 14th Day, Meeting with Sakina Itoo Yields No Breakthrough
Vocational trainers from across Jammu and Kashmir, who have been on protest for the last fourteen days, met Education and Health Minister Sakina Itoo yesterday.
According to the protesting trainers, there was no positive response from the minister.
The trainers also claimed that one of their colleagues has committed suicide due to distress over their long-pending demands.
They warned that if their demands are not addressed, all vocational trainers will march towards Delhi to seek intervention from the Prime Minister and demand a fair probe into their issues. They further said that they will go on a hunger strike if needed.
Today also some deliberations are underway where representatives of the vocational trainers are meeting government representatives.

Jobs, Salaries & Security: Why Vocational Trainers Are Protesting
Vocational trainers across Jammu & Kashmir have intensified their protest, demanding job security, a comprehensive service policy, timely salaries and an end to the outsourcing system.
The trainers, many of whom have served in government schools for nearly a decade, say repeated assurances have failed to resolve their long-standing concerns. The protest has also taken a tragic turn following the death of a Kupwara trainer amid the ongoing agitation.
Watch our report for the demands of the protesting trainers.
