Two months ahead of the Durga Puja, the Tripura government on Tuesday announced a recruitment drive to fill up over 1,600 posts in different departments including those of education and health.
Speaking to reporters at the state secretariat in Agartala, Tourism Minister Sushanta Chowdhury said the Cabinet resolved to recruit 700 graduate and 915 postgraduate teachers. “These decisions were adopted during a Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Manik Saha. We all know that there is a shortage of postgraduate teachers in schools and that’s why the education department has decided to recruit postgraduate teachers for these schools. The Teachers’ Recruitment Board of Tripura will conduct the recruitment,” he said.
Saha later wrote on X, “State cabinet approves recruitment of 700 Graduate Teachers (GT) to strengthen our education system and ensure quality education for all. We are committed to provide employment opportunities and march for the Shrestha Tripura.”
The recruitment drive is expected to address a teacher shortage that the Opposition CPM has attributed to the retrenchment of 10,323 teachers positions over faulty recruitment done during the erstwhile Left Front rule.
The cabinet also decided to fill up 37 posts including those of professor, associate professor, assistant professor, deputy registrar, assistant registrar, in National Law University. Six posts of dental medical officers will be filled up under the health department.
“The recruitment process to fill up 37 posts would be done by the National Law University as per their recruitment rules. The recruitment of the medical officers would be done through the Tripura Public Service Commission,” said Chowdhury.
