AGARTALA, January 21 (TIWN): In multicrore scam of Rashtriya Madhyamik Siksha Abhiyan, the advance bail plea of two accused Rajiv Dasgupta and Binoy Das were placed in the High Court. However, the Court did not announce the verdict and put it on stay basis on Tuesday. While more secrets have been unearthed while investigating the biggest ever scam of Education Department in Tripura. Rajiv Dasgupta had looted 33 lakhs rupees in 9 months from 4 banks. But he had paid the income tax of only Rs 1200. After the hearing of the advance bail plea, placed on the High Court, Chief Justice Deepak Gupta was himself surprised by getting the information. Chief Justice told that this must be put under the notice of CBI. Other than that, Rajiv had helped accused cashier Arnab Chakraborty to successfully use fake mark sheet of Madhyamik Examination for getting the Government Job. In the meantime, Binoy had helped Arnab and his wife Sangeeta to fleed away to Kolkata. The investigation of multicrore RMSA scam is progressing very slowly due to high level political influence from Melarmath,even though Police is successful to arrest the cashier Arnab Chakraborty, but the masterminds are still at large.Except cashier Arnab Chakraborty, the kingpins connected with this scam are still roaming free.

It was found that Arnab had deposited 96 cheques, but no enquiry had been called by the then DDO, Ambalika Dutta. As 96 cheques cannot be deposited from specially one cheque book. Therefore, the question arises, that despite of being informed that such a large scam process is going on, why the higher officials liek Education Secretary Rao or Director P.K.Chakraborty did not take any preventive measure ? Though, on the other hand even if cheques have been issued with forged signatures, is there none to check the accounts regularly? There seems to be twist here. The big heads connected with the case are still at large. As because, it was not possible for an ordinary cashier to play such a multicrore scam. However, the CBI has taken suo moto cognizance of the multicrore RMSA scam in Tripura

The Investigating Officer (IO) of multi­crore Rastriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA) scam submitted charge sheet on November 21st against the accused persons in connection with forgery of official checks and misappropriation of RMSA funds under the Directorate of School Education. However, the charge sheet submitted by the police also contains some loopholes.

However, the arrest of the scamster Arnab Chakraborty seems to have lead the Story’s end with police playing a negative role in the name of investigation.  Now, the kingpins are trying to free Arnab from the trap of the police. Otherwise, they can be under the trap of police at any time.

Though officially Chief Minister Manik Sarkar, CPI (M) State Secretary Bijan Dhar have denied any involvement of CPI (M) party and its Brand man Manik Sarkar in these scams or any of the accused persons, recent activities clearly convey the message that State Govt. is highly concerned about all these ongoing scams. Putting the blame on opposition and media and terming the discoveries of multirole scams in different departments as the effort of imperialists may give the ruling party ' dividends in cashing votes in the rural belts; But the power of truth is such that, someday it spills out spontaneously and no ruler however powerful cannot suppress truth.
