Educational Institutions’ Association has withdrawn the proposed boycott of Standard XII examinations. The examinations are beginning on March 4.
Presient of the Association Vijay Naval Patil and general Secretary Ravindra Fadnavis have informed that the boycott has been withdrawn following discussion with Nationalist Congress Party Chief Sharad Pawar. Pawar has assured to follow their demands during the ongoing budget session of the State Legislature.
The Association has also informed that they will boycott the examinations of Standard X, if solutions to their demands are not worked out by March 14.
The educational institutions are agitating as non-salary grants to them have not been paid for the last several years. About 40 educational institutions had joined the proposed boycott.
