AGARTALA, July 21 (TIWN): Tripura Govt's promise about Rs. 10 lakhs compensation to each Covid deceased family has yet to get momentum although the promise was made by none other than CM Biplab Deb himself. On May 7, 2020 Tripura CM Biplab Deb announced a compensation amount of Rs 10 lakhs for the family members of those who died fighting COVID-19. After the promise 1 year has passed and new death reports are also coming everyday in the second wave but not a single person has received Rs. 10 lakhs. Among Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Deb's tall promises, Rs. 10 lakhs to each Covid death victim's families also has resulted in Fake promises amid the death toll has crossed 500 in state. So far no plan has been executed to implement the promise in reality. No Covid deceased's family has gotten any money as compensation.
It was - "Dear Friends, State Govt already declared if anyone dies from Covid in state, their families will be given Rs. 4 lakhs each. Today I am announcing that the front line warriors like Doctors, Nurses, Health Workers, Journalists, Paramedics, Police personnel, Sweeping staff, ICDS employees, ASHA Workers including the Civil Administration and the Line Dept and including everybody, total 37 lakhs of people will get Rs. 10 lakhs if anyone in their families die of Covid for survival. Rs. 4 lakhs will be given from SDRF and rest Rs. 6 Lakhs will be managed from CM relief fund".
