URL copied DU teachers to go back on strike from April 12 over 'Pattern of Assistance' document The Delhi University Teachers' Association (DUTA) on Sunday said it will go back on strike from April 12 if the "university fails to take concrete steps" to safeguard interest of employees and colleges. DUTA has been protesting for over three weeks against the appointment of senior administrative officers (Sr AOs) and the issue of a 'Pattern of Assistance' document in 12 Delhi government-funded DU colleges. According to a letter addressed to DU's acting vice-chancellor P C Joshi, DUTA demanded that the university takes "concrete steps" to ensure the 12 colleges are "governed within the framework of DU Act and Ordinances".
