Naga Students' Union, Chandel submitted a memorandum to the Commissioner of Education (S) demanding selection and appointment of the 14 candidates from Chandel district who have successfully cleared the written test of Primary teachers conducted in 2006 .
The memorandum pressed that out of 50 vacant posts of Primary teachers in the district, 14 posts must be filled up with the successful 14 candidates from the district itself and the rest may be filled up with the candidates from other districts.
The memorandum said that many candidates from Chandel district could not appear in the written examination held on October 29, 2006 due to a general strike called by some organisations in the district.
It further said that although the remaining candidates were allowed to sit in the examination held on 12 November, 2006 at Imphal, majority of the candidates did not turn up to the arrangement as they could afford to expenditures.
