Agartala, Jan 11 (PTI) The Tripura government on Wednesday formed a three-member committee headed by a retired high court judge to look into the issues of 10,323 retrenched teachers.<\/p>\n
The announcement came a day after Chief Minister Manik Saha assured the retrenched teachers of doing “something” ahead of the state elections.<\/p>\n
“The state government has decided to constitute an advisory committee for providing recommendations to resolve the issues related to the teachers dismissed as a fall out of a high court’s judgement in May, 2014,” said NC Debbarma, the Additional Secretary of Secondary Education.<\/p>\n
“The committee will submit their recommendation to the government on or before March 31, 2023,” he said.<\/p>\n
Justice (retired) AB Paul will head the panel, while the two other members are advocate Chandra Shekar Sinha and retired IFS officer Prasenjit Pal.<\/p>\n
Four officers will be engaged to help the committee.<\/p>\n
Saha had on Tuesday said that he was consulting legal experts to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n
“We have the will to do something for the dismissed teachers but fear that contempt of court may come on the way. They will have to wait, and I am hopeful of finding a solution to the fiasco,” he said.<\/p>\n
Following separate writ petitions, the Tripura High Court had dismissed 10,323 teachers on the grounds of faulty and illegal appointment in May 2014.<\/p>\n
The then Left Front government had challenged the verdict in Supreme Court, but the apex court upheld the earlier order in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
