Tensions Rise in Silchar as Primary Teachers Take to the Streets. A protest erupted in Silchar, a city in the northeastern Indian state of Assam, as primary school teachers took to the streets to express their discontent over a recent change in salary disbursal. The move, which has been implemented by the state government, has left many teachers feeling underpaid and undervalued, sparking widespread anger and frustration. The protesters, who are demanding a reversal of the decision, claim that the change has significantly reduced their take-home pay, making it difficult for them to make ends meet. As the standoff between the teachers and the government continues, the future of the education sector in Assam hangs in the balance.
