However later identifying the irregularities in the payment the workers showed a protest in front of Panchayat and locked the office. Getting an alarm the chief engineer along with Panchayat extension officer Soma Begum rushed to the panchayat but failed to provide any explanation to the workers.
But during the protest the GRS told the workers that they have been paid their wages as per the measurement of their work. However, but it is to mentioned here that the minimum wages that has been fixed for the REGAwork is Rs. 130.
It is also mentionable here that the state Tripura is already under the limelight of massive corruptions and scams in MGNREGA fund. And besides, such an irregularities in REGA wages under at least every Panchayats of the state are often coming out highlighted where the workers are being deprived at large and often they show a protest infront of the panchayats. But the administration has been playing a role of a silent spectator, with the state govt. leaving no stones unturned.
