AGARTALA, Oct 1 (TIWN): Tripura Govt led another recruitment scam has been exposed, when Central Govt has issued a notification about teachers’ training. As per the notifications training have to be completed within 2 years along with necessary percentages. But the teachers who were recruited under 'blind category' in 2007 they even don't know Braille method of teaching, neither they are able to do any class at the schools. For example one teacher who studied in normal school and college at Udaipur, later s/he lost eye-power due to some accident. On that time due to CPI-M’s heavy closeness with the family they managed a job for the blind person by giving posting at nearby school forever. However, after the recruitment the teacher was never trained with the initiative of state govt.But now when Central Govt has asked for competition of degrees it has created a chaos in that family.

 Neither the teacher knows Braille method of study nor s/he knows how to face the exam.Such problems are however happening with many teachers.

The family members alleged that the recruitment was not wrong but the dept of state govt’s choice was incorrect and most likely they will lose jobs after 2 years as NIOS exam they can’t pass.

All are happening as the state govt has hidden many truths from the teachers even after RTE act was implemented. Moreover, the state govt is not at all cooperating with the teachers .

Teachers have demanded the state govt should take certain initiatives to resolve the issues and help them in admissions.
