Narayan was replying to the issue raised by the Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah.

Raising the matter during the zero hour, Siddaramaiah said there are 430 first grade colleges in the State where there are over 14,500 guest lecturers and many of them are highly qualified. These guest lecturers have been working on the same salary for 10 to 15 years.

“Their key demand is that they should get salary for 12 months and regularisation just as 16,000 guest lecturers have been regularised in Delhi,” Siddaramaiah said.
