AGARTALA, Oct 9 (TIWN): Although along with the whole nation Tripura is also celebrating Durga Puja-2016, but there is no relief for the state govt employees from their everyday crisis due to the poor pay scale, less DA with much gaps with the Central Pay scales. The central govt. on the occasion of Saptami enriched Tipura’s potentiality more by gifting Agartala-Sealdah Kanchanjunga Express train, but Tripura CM ended by wishing the people with empty hands, and asking them to maintain the Peace throughout puja. Even after High court orders to clear 31% DA to the state government employees, Tripura government once again in the cabinet meeting deprived its employees by giving only mere 4% DA. It is to be mentioned here that Tripura High Court has ordered the state govt. to pay 31 % DA unless the govt. here doesn’t take any proper DA system and Pay Commissions implement. High Court Judge Subhashish Talapatra in a divisional bench announced it. Court has ordered to give the 31 % DA since 1/1/2009 to 27/8/2011, in 3 installments.
But challenging the HC Tripura Govt appealed in SC & later increased only 4 % DA for the pensioners and state government employees the difference between the state and central employees still remained at 42%.
As a result the budgets of households are tight in this festive month also. State Tripura being ruled under Communist party for long 23 years, has undergone massive losses due the wrong communist ideology. Infact recently, Tripura Urban Development Minister Manik Dey said, “Less profit keeps the balance of mind, people should not run after high earnings”
However, such wrong ideology’s show off by Communist leaders are increasing resentments among the public.
On the other hand around 7 lakhs of unemployed youths has hit the so claimed “Peace” in the state, resulting increasing drug addiction, crime rate in State.
