AGARTALA, Nov 5 (TIWN): SSA teacher Shyamal Chakraborty's death couldn't move the Govt to think about the SSA's regularization or atleast to accept demands on Die-In-Harness which has devastated Shyamal Chakraborty's family members. If 'Die-in-harness' facility was implemented for SSA, RMSA teachers then Shyamal Chakraborty's wife could be appointed in Tripura Education Dept as per her quality. Question raises, why deprivations are done to the contractual employees of Tripura, whereas a major part of School education system are dependent upon the SSA, RMSA teachers ? Not only this, in TPSC also the teachers can not sit for HM's examinations.

Thus in all the ways, scopes for the contractual teachers' better futures have been blocked by the state govt. In this condition, SSA Teachers Welfare Association members donated a Rs. 5000 rupees to the family members and some more they are trying to collect but the teachers didn't get any financial aiding from the state govt, Bastab Debbarma SSA Welfare Association's Secretary told TIWN.

Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) had begun on 2001, whereas Rastrya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyaan (RMSA) was launched in 2009. Thus whereas SSA teachers are doing contractual jobs since 17 years, the RMSA teachers are from 10 years. Teachers and other working staffs complained that eventhough they are working for more than 10 to 17 years, but there is no promotion in their profession till day. Moreover, the 'One-Day-Gap' has exhausted their all hopes, depriving them from all chances to be regular in coming future. However, along with that 156 RMSA LDC and Lab Assts who lost their jobs----the RMSA, SSA teachers also raised voice for them various times, asking the Govt to provide them alternative jobs, but the state govt has been least bothered about it.

The SSA-RMSA teachers, staffs raised some demands many times, which could save Shyamal Chakraborty's family :

1. To regularize the contractual teachers as fast as possible,

2. 'One-day-Gap' process should be abolished,

3. 'Die-in-harness' should be implemented,

4. Increment should launched to identify senior SSA-RMSA teachers,

5. SSA-RMSA teachers should be allowed to sit in TPSE for Headmaster's posts,

6. EL, LTC and GPF must be given,

7. BRP, CRP, Block Coordinator and office employees continuation process should be stopped,

8. Vacancies under SSA, RMSA would be fulfilled as fast as possible,

9. Transfer process should t be reviewed,

10. 156 LDC and Lab Assistants who lost their jobs need to be provided by alternative jobs,

11.  Teachers under RMSA should given chances to complete their B.Ed degree,.

Many states like Haryana, Himachal, Rajastan, Madhyapradesh, Gujrat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Kerala, Sikkim, Nagaland, Manipur, Tamilnadu etc. have already appointed teachers under SSA on regular basis although it remained unimplemented under Tripura Govt.
