In response, the guild decided to launch on Monday a new strike of 72 hours without assistance to workplaces. The decisive strike by teachers in addition to measures of force that took the masters of the initial and primary levels of a new indefinite strike.
general secretary of the Provincial Association of Teachers of Jujuy, Mario Fars said it was necessary to deepen the measures of strength and appeal to the march because there was no way to negotiate with the government. "The officials wanted to enter the Government House to try to talk and there began the repression of the police," he explained.

Before concluding, Fars declared: "They can not attack people well and less when the majority are women."
