Non-academic staff of universities island-wide launched a strike today demanding a 25 percent increase in allowances.
Media spokesman of the Inter University Trade Union Joint Committee Wijetilake Jayasinghe told Timesonline, talks between the union and University Grants Commission have failed since February.
“Authorities assured to increase the allowances in May but it didn’t happen. We held talks yesterday (5) but it was a failure as they wanted to further delay the increase," he said.
