AGARTALA, Aug 24 (TIWN): When Tripura Govt is claiming about multi-thousand jobs’ creation in last 2 and half years, in reality from Mid-day-meal to other contractual employees have been terminated massively in last 2 and half years. BJP in its Vision Document had promised to regularize all contractual employees once it comes to power which has not been done yet. Also, uncountable numbers of contractual employees were terminated in the state in last 2 and half years. However, according to many ruling party members, 90% of the Vision Document of BJP fulfilled. Recently, Telimaura sub-divisional hospital, 3 cleaning staffs were terminated by the Govt citing irregularities. In such an incident contractual workers who were promised by Tripura BJP to be regularized once BJP comes in power, are left helpless.
On Monday, they have gheraoed the Director of Horticulture seeking their regularization. "In CPI-M Govt's time when we blocked road demanding regularization, Biplab Deb helped to withdraw the blockade, assured our demands fulfilling once his Govt comes but now we can't meet him even. Rather our salaries are cut now", said Garden Workers under Govt of Tripura, while they gheraoed the Director office.
“We don’t want salary increasement for now. We want that Govt should regularize us so that we can survive. Govt at least should accept us”, said an agitating woman there.
