Chandigarh, October 12, 2026: A delegation of the Central Executive Committee of the Teachers’ Association of City Beautiful met senior BJP leader and member of the BJP National Executive Sanjay Tandon to apprise him of various demands and pending issues concerning teachers and employees of the Chandigarh Education Department.

During the meeting, teachers of the 2015 batch also expressed their gratitude to Tandon for his support in securing their arrears and revised salaries.

Appreciating the delegation for bringing these matters to his attention, Tandon said, “Teachers play a vital role in shaping the future of society and nation-building. Their legitimate concerns deserve timely consideration and resolution. I am pleased that the efforts made for the teachers of the 2015 batch have helped them secure their arrears and revised salaries.”

The delegation also submitted a memorandum seeking the restoration of salaries of employees working as Urban Resource Coordinators (URCs) and Cluster Resource Coordinators (CRCs), which, according to the association, had been withheld without any valid reason.

Similarly, the promotion-related concerns of Physical Education Teachers deserve due consideration. I will extend the necessary support to ensure that these issues are brought to the attention of the concerned authorities for appropriate action.”

The delegation requested Tandon’s intervention and continued support for the resolution of the pending demands of teachers and employees.
