Agartala: The Tripura government on Wednesday constituted a three-member committee headed by a retired high court judge to look into the issues of 10,323 retired teachers.
The announcement came a day after Chief Minister Manik Saha assured retrenched teachers to do “something” before the state polls.
NC Debbarma, Additional Secretary, Secondary Education, said, “The state government decided to set up an advisory committee to provide recommendations to resolve issues related to dismissed teachers as a result of the High Court judgment in May 2014. What is it.”
He said that the committee will submit its recommendations to the government on or before March 31, 2023.
Justice (retd) AB Paul will head the panel, while two other members are advocate Chandra Shekar Sinha and retired IFS officer Prasenjit Pal.
Four officers will be engaged to assist the committee.
Saha had said on Tuesday that he was consulting legal experts to resolve the issue.
“We intend to do something for the sacked teachers but there is concern that contempt of court may come in. They will have to wait, and I am hopeful of finding a solution to the impasse,” he said.
After separate writ petitions, the Tripura High Court had in May 2014 dismissed 10,323 teachers on the grounds of defective and illegal appointment.
The then Left Front government challenged the decision in the Supreme Court, but the Supreme Court upheld the earlier order in 2017.
