What happened

Two teachers' associations have given the state government until October 9 to meet six demands, including unpaid DA and CPF contributions. They warn of a statewide agitation if nothing is done.

Why it may matter

• This is time-bound — there is an application or deadline involved, so check the dates before they pass.
• Useful if you are trying to find an internship or get a job.
• Affects students in India.
