The Jammu and Kashmir Administrative Council (AC) has approved a 50 per cent hike in honorarium for 2,417 Rehbar-e-Khel (ReK) physical education teachers of the Youth Services and Sports Department, as per an official statement. The meeting was chaired by Lt Governor Manoj Sinha in Jammu on Wednesday.
The decision comes after a High Powered Committee recommended the hike in honorarium for the Rehbar-e-Khel teachers last year. This move is aimed at encouraging and promoting sports activities in the schools of UT of J&K.
According to an official statement, “The enhancement of honorarium in favour of ReKs will encourage them for further promotion and popularisation of sports activities in the schools of UT of J&K.”
The 50 per cent hike in honorarium for Rehbar-e-Khel physical education teachers is expected to boost their morale and motivate them to further promote and popularise sports activities in schools across Jammu and Kashmir. This decision reflects the administration’s commitment to the development and promotion of sports in the region.
The approval of the honorarium hike for Rehbar-e-Khel teachers by the Jammu and Kashmir Administrative Council underlines the government’s recognition of the crucial role played by these physical education teachers in promoting sports and fitness among students. This move is likely to have a positive impact on the overall sports scenario in the region.
