AGARTALA, March 17 (TIWN): A recent survey on unemployed youths vote banks revealed, there are logics why in Tripura unemployed youths in demand of Govt jobs. According to unemployed youths, there are no private company which can pay like big cities, neither there is any industrialization. Business stays dull amid high commodity price. Apart form that a very minimum numbers of youths are mentally prepared for business, whereas BJP even though before election said to give 50000 Govt jobs in 1 year, but now Chief Minister Biplab Deb ended by motivating youths self-employment and said Govt will give loans. According to unemployed youths, giving loans are nothing new, whereas the previous Govt gave double jobs than the present.

Affecting over 8000 youths, TPSC had cancelled all the ongoing recruitments under BJP Govt, although TPSC is considered as one autonomous body uncontrolled by the Govt. Apart from TPSC, thousands of recruitment officially, unofficially were cancelled, added by massive terminations. It’s  being observed that the previous CPI-M Govt was 10 times more capable of giving Govt jobs, amid fund crisis.

By any means, even without day to day Delhi visits like the present CM Biplab Deb, Manik Sarkar’s Govt continued to give jobs, regular salaries, yearly DA, wage / salary hikes. But the BJP-IPFT Govt although having a same Govt at the centre, but successfully reeled the state under massive economic crisis, unemployment rate has been doubled.

In this condition CPI-M’s two candidates : MP Jitendra Chaudhury, MP Shankar Prasad Datta’s appeal seem more valid than BJP to the voters, says report.

While addressing media, however, Sunil Deodhar  on yesterday said that BJP will win at least 20 seats from the Northeast and with a confident smile said that Tripura’s two seats will be the easiest seats for BJP to win.

Frustration against the BJP Govt went high in last 1 year and the Govt image has left just as a JUMLA-Govt. BJP which promised to give 50000 jobs in the first one year, is totally silent about it, whereas 1 year has gone without recruitment. Instead of recruiting, all the existing jobs under the Left Govt was cancelled by the BJP Govt. Tripura Public Service Commission (TPSC) website which has been unemployed youths eye-centre for decades have published only 5 notifications in last four months (November, 2018 to February, 2019) but with an irony all the notifications were subjected to reminder of postponing or cancellation of jobs. All the notifications shocked the job aspirants in the last four moths after a year-long holding of those jobs in the name of “postponing”.

BJP’s Vision Document unfurled by Arun Jaitley, it says in page 6 Point No-7, “There are about 50,000 vacancies in the state government. We will fill up all these vacancies within a year through a transparent process”. 

But in a surprising move, Chief Minister Biplab Deb said that BJP never promised 50,000 vacant posts will be filled up.
