AGARTALA, Jan 18 (TIWN): When keeping the election in front, Tripura Education Minister Tapan Chakraborty reacting over the TET Qualified teachers demands of regular pay scale said, "They have points and reasons", the teachers raised question, "If our points are valid that means knowing fully well that our rights are getting violated, the State Govt was doing the wrong with us. We claim it's a historical mistake by the Govt."
"Instead of giving us pay scales only showing sympathy ahead of election, can not recover the mistake of the state govt", added the teachers.
The TET Qualified teachers in Tripura also came in massive protest demanding regular-pay scales. In front of Gandhi statue at Agartala Circuit house, the teachers staged a mass agitation through silent protest. In banners teachers displayed their demands writing, "Stop Exploiting Teachers". Also banners were shown writing, "We are doing our duty regularly, but why the salary is fixed ? Some more banners as "Where is minimum wage", "We want rights to live" etc.
"Whereas across the country TET qualifiers are getting regular pay scale, in maximum states with full benefits of 7th pay commission, but in Tripura teachers even after qualified in TET are getting fixed pay basis salaries resulted huge resentment among the qualified teachers", alleged the teachers.
