AGARTALA, July 25 (TIWN): When 24 months of relaxation were sought from the Supreme Court for terminated 10323 teachers by BJP Govt, 3 months are happily passing with Supreme Court’s delay in the verdict. 10323 teachers whom BJP Govt promised before the election that anyhow after Govt forms they will save the teachers' future even though they were illegally recruited by depriving qualified youths in CPI-M era, are now safe for next 2 months as Supreme Court said the next hearing will be on September 17. “Right now the 10323 teachers case’s next nearing is listed for September 17”, State Law Secretary Data Mohon Jamatia confirmed TIWN. BJP led State Govt told the Court to extend the ad-hoc up job continuation to 2020, June 30, but no final verdict was given today. Supreme Court has also postponed their termination up to the next hearing and their jobs are save. Now we have to wait till September 17 to know the final verdict". The delay of Supreme Court's verdict against an already declared verdict of the same court and BJP Govt's demand of relaxation in teachers recruitment are working as "hopes" for the 10323 teachers.

The 10323 teachers who were terminated with Supreme Court’s final verdict are going to lose their jobs after 30th June 2018 as after 31st December their jobs were increased onad-hoc basis for more 6 months but that tenure also is going to end on June 30th. 10,323 teachers' jobs were first cancelled by Tripura High Court in 2014 on May 7 after spotting irregularities in the recruitment process, before the issue was taken to Supreme Court by the the CPI-M Govt. 

A division bench of the high court, comprising Chief Justice Deepak Gupta and Justice Swapan Chandra Das, had passed then order May 7, 2014 terminating the jobs of 10,323 school teachers after Dec 31, citing irregularities in recruitment and SC has upheld High Court's 2014 verdict.

On March 29, 2017, the Supreme Court also held High Court's order and terminated the teachers. Supreme Court in a humanaitarian gesture to 10323 teachers mentioned that the teachers will continue their jobs till 2017, 31st Dec.

Later with the request of Tripura Govt, the Supreme Court added 6 months of ad hoc basis jobs for the teachers which was to be ended on June 30, 2018.

After Biplab Deb led new Govt came in power it appealed the Supreme Court for the extension of two years more in the ad hoc. The next hearing has been listed for that on July 18 and the teachers to continue their jobs till then until Supreme Court gives the final verdict.
