Lindholm (1997) demonstrated that the teachers reported significantly lower incentives for achievement and distinguishment and significantly higher connection incentives. Gupta and Jain (2003) reported that an assortment of variables, for example, salary, security, physical conditions, promotion, distinguishment and so on impact job satisfaction. Kumar and Patnaik (2004) reported that job satisfaction and state of mind towards work are very connected. Kumar, Udayasuriyan and Vimala (2008) reported significant contrasts in work motivation dependent upon the demographic variables, for example, age, gender showing background in the present association, conjugal status and month to month wage. Dombrovskis, Guseva and Murasovs (2011) presumed that the intentions of work satisfaction and economic wellbeing were found to possess the most minimal position in the work motivation structure. Kaur and Sidana (2011) found that level of job satisfaction of male teachers was more stupendous than their female partners. Gupta, Pasrija and Bansal (2012) reported that female teachers were more fulfilled than their male partners and more encountered teachers, teachers having a place with provincial zones would be advised to job satisfaction than their partners. Hence, it is expected that the present study will give another data and viewpoint depicting job satisfaction and work motivation of secondary schoo teachers.
