AGARTALA, Dec 9 (TIWN): Agartala Rail Station has finally become lifeless under the Tripura’s CPI-M Govt’s decision-less condition followed by a major recruitment scam led 10323 teachers to be terminated by High Court and Supreme Court and finally with 10323 teachers launched Rail Blockade demanding alternative jobs since yesterday as their termination date is Dec 31st, 2017. Tripura Education Minister Tapan Chakraborty after saying that ‘Govt will not pressurize the teachers to withdraw the blockade’, is not answering media queries anymore. Tough situations are being faced by Railway authorities with the paralyzed condition of Railway service. From freight trains to passenger trains all have been paralyzed due to the 10323 teachers led blockade.

TIWN visited Agartala Railway Station, but met horrifying conditions with not a single passenger is right now at there.

 On the other side Tripura Govt has turned a blind eye from the issue leading mass suffering to the common people.

The 10323 teachers had sat on Railway and National Highway at Dhalai Dist since yesterday afternoon, led mass traffic jam at there and rail service became fully paralyzed. The blockade has been conducted on SK Para of Manu under Dhalai Dist. Teachers said, “Either Govt will give us jobs or we will die, but blockade will not be withdrawn”. 

Along with that the teachers also announced if Tripura Govt uses any force they will attack back and if anything happens to 10323 teachers, then, the liability will also go to the Tripura Govt. The teachers who will be terminated on Dec 31st, 2017. "From 6 December 6 AM to 8 December 6 AM, we are giving 48 hrs to Tripura Govt but if no action is taken till then, we will go in vast protests. If police forces us and anything happens to us then the whole responsibility will go to the state govt", the teachers said in the press meet.

The teachers in the last week held various meeting in town hall and discussed about the crisis situations, they are undergoing.

Finally the teachers have come to this solution, when nothing has been left to lost.

In 2014 after some deprived youths filed a case against 2010’s teachers' recruitment and High Court had terminated the teachers following the illegal recruitment which was done, without following any merit.

The teachers’ lives still could  be saved by the CPI-M Govt as High Court had given an open option to the state govt saying that the jobs can be saved if the deprived youths are appointed in their respective posts, but due to Chief Minister Manik Sarkar’s arrogance the HC's verdict challenged in the Supreme Court by Tripura Govt but again on March 29, 2017 SC in the final hearing kept the HC’s verdict effective and fixed the last date of teachers jobs as Dec 31st, 2017.
