Dear Colleagues,

We congratulate and salute teachers for showing unprecedented solidarity and commitment towards the ongoing movement. Evaluation Boycott remained successful despite the 1 June email of the Dean, Examinations which tried to remind teachers of their duties and Code of Professional Ethics. The failure of the administration to conduct routine work effectively and efficiently has created crisis in the University. Apathetic attitude of the Government and the DU administration has pushed us to take the extreme step of Evaluation Boycott. Let us work collectively and take the struggle forward.

Please find enclosed the resolution of the General Body held on 1 June. The GBM  decided the following future course of action. We appeal to Staff Associations to mobilise for the action programmes and hold Staff Association meetings for the next Extended DUTA Executive scheduled for Thursday, 7 June 2018. The next GBM will be held on 8 June 2018.

Forthcoming action programmes:

1) Press Conference by the DUTA along with various Leaders of Political Parties on the issue of 5 March UGC Notification – subversion of Reservation Policy and the crisis in DU (date to be finalised by the Office Bearers in consultation with Leaders of Political Parties).

2) DUTA “Kali Patti Rally” from Mandi House to Shastri Bhawan, on Tuesday, 5 June. Assembly at Mandi House on 11 am. The DUTA will mobilise support from Members of Parliament, students’ groups and teachers’ associations for the Protest Programme.

3) Jan Sampark programme, 6 June: DUTA along with Staff Associations of a cluster of colleges will distribute leaflets/handbills and talk to the general public on busy spots (metro stations/chowks). The DUTA will identify and release list of these busy spots.

4) Meeting of the Extended DUTA Executive at 4 pm on Thursday, 7 June in the DUTA Office to review the matter and suggest future action programme to the GBM

5) DUTA GBM on Friday, 8 June 2018 to decide the future course of action.

We shall fight, we shall win.
