AGARTALA, September 10 (TIWN): 10,323 teachers were deprived of getting the advanced wage of Rs 4500 for the upcoming Durga Puja. The Government had taken this decision at the Cabinet meet on Tuesday. Now the question arises as is the Government really worried of the fate of the 10,323 teachers?Every year the employees get advance for the Durga Puja. The advanced wage gets cut off from their salary in order to meet the wage balance.This year the amount of advanced wage should be 4,500. From that 500 will be cut off every month from the salary of the employees. However the Government had decided not to pay the advanced wage to the 10,323 teachers as their fate still not decided by the Court.

 It is to be mentioned that High Court on May 7th decided to cancel the employment of 10,323 teachers as their selection process is not justified. Further the Government filed a petition to the Supreme Court for the settlement of these teachers. Supreme Court has put a stay order on this case and the next date of the case is scheduled to be 12th September.

Probably the Government thinks that if these teachers does not get re-appointment then the advance wage cannot be collected from them. Now the question stands as is the Government really thinks about the fate of these teachers. It is to be guessed that thinking about the benefit of the teachers, Government had filed a case to the Supreme Court. If this really happens then why these teachers were deprived of getting the advance wage? This is a matter of uncertainty. It is also to be mentioned that Government had not utilized them in the recently happened LokSabha election and Panchayat election also.  Going by all these indications, the fate of 10323 teachers doesn't seem to be hopeful.
