AGARTALA, Feb 3 (TIWN): Left Front in its election manifesto has assured the 10323 teachers to appoint them to new Govt jobs if the party is Left Front/Congress Govt is voted to power. Before 2018 Poll, the then Left Front Govt had created over 12,000 posts for the 10323 teachers’ appointment, but could not appoint them as a case was filed in Supreme Court and Supreme Court stayed the appointment. Left Front said that Supreme Court later withdrew the stay order and so there is no problem to restore those posts. CPI-M in last 5 years many times requested the BJP Govt to restore those posts and heavy arguments were witnessed in the Assembly. BJP also in 2018 poll promised to solve 10323 teachers’ issue but miserably failed to keep its promise. Now, Left Front has assured the 10323 teachers that they will get new Govt jobs and the teachers who passed away, their families will be helped.

The Left Front manifesto also states that old pension scheme will be relaunched in Tripura where a person gets life time pension, which means all the employees who were recruited since 2018 will also be brought under the benefit. Noteworthy, Tripura was the only state before 2018 which was paying the Life-Time pension benefit and BJP Govt removed that policy introducing nationally implemented pension policy.
