AGARTALA, Oct 1 (TIWN): Tripura Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) teachers who are yet to be regularized even after the High Court’s order have demonstrated in Khumulwng, ADC. In this protest, the SSA teachers also reminded the State BJP-IPFT Govt about pre-election promises given to them.

The teachers filed a case in the Tripura High Court in 2017 demanding regularization and on 23rd February 2021, High Court ordered Tripura Govt to regularize the SSA teachers. However, Law Minister cum Education Minister Ratan Lal Nath stated that the High Court had given authority to the State Govt to apply a scheme for the SSA’s regularization and on that basis only 45 teachers could be regularized and other teachers also have to clear TET to become regular employees. In that context, SSA teachers said that the State Govt is misinterpreting the verdict of the Tripura High Court and thus not taking necessary actions to regularize them. In protest, the SSA teachers sat  in demonstration today.
