Teachers of all public universities in the country will observe work abstention from Monday for an indefinite period as their demand to cancel the Universal Pension Scheme notification for them is not met.

Federation of Bangladesh University Teachers’ Association Secretary General Nizamul Hoque announced the programme at a press conference on the Dhaka University campus on Sunday (June 30).

Meanwhile, teachers of Dhaka University and other public universities across the country observed a full-day work abstention today to realise their demand.
