Non-teaching employees of Bihar universities and colleges were on indefinite strike for more than one month. Now, the employees decided to launch Fill-in-Jail campaign to press their demands.
Meanwhile, the Bihar Cabinet gave its nod to the key demand of the employees for 50 per cent merger of DA with their basic pay with effect from January 1, 2005.
