he State Anganwari Workers Association President, Tasleem Subhan told INS that from Monday their will be ‘total lock down of all the centers across the valley and they will not submit their compulsory Monthly Progress Reports’.
The move, according to Subhan, is aimed to press for the demand of ‘regularisation of services and increase in monthly salary’.
Subhan said that they feel deceived by ‘certain officials who promised to resolve their issue and take up the matter with government’.
