AGARTALA, April 1 (TIWN): After 10,323 teachers recruitment scam, it has been much easier for the oppositions to push the ‘ wisest’, ‘cleanest’, ‘poorest’ Tripura chief minister Manik Sarkar to jail even after his easy escape from Rose Valley Chit Fund scam. Due to lack of proper evidences with various allegations, till day 8 years after Rose Valley Chit fund scam, opposition Congress, TMC failed to sent any of the CPI-M Ministers to jail as West Bengal Ministers. But now PCC Chief Birjit Sinha has shown the path of sending CM Manik Sarkar to jail with former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala. Talking to TIWN Congress President Birjit Sinha as a part of immediate reaction said, “We have sympathy for those helpless 10,323 teachers, but punishments should be given to the policy violators who are the actual criminal in the case. Chief Minister Manik Sarkar not only should resign from his post but also should jailed”.

However TIWN further asked, “Will Congress file any case against Manik Sarkar?”, Sinha replied, “We will decide this later, but at present Govt should take responsibility of the teachers”. 

It’s worthy to mention here that The INLD supremo Om Prakash Chautala and his son Ajay Chautala were convicted on January 16, 2013, by a Delhi court for illegally recruiting 3,206 junior basic teachers 12 years ago. Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) chief and five-time Haryana chief minister Om Prakash Chautala and his son Ajay Chautala were sentenced to 10 years in prison after being found guilty of corruption in a teacher recruitment scam on January 22, 2013.

In Tripura’s case the recruited teachers’ number are 3 times more than the Haryana case. Now if like earlier, any opposition party, files case in Court appealing Manik Sarkar’s corruption in his long chief minister’s regime then what will happen next…? It’s to be seen.

However, 10,323 case lost one the one hand have although devastated the families and also CPI-M comrades, on the other hand the verdict has cheered the oppositions in Tripura and celebrations are going on across the party offices in whole state, except CPI-M party offices. 

10,323 teachers will get together at Rabindra Bhawan on Sunday and will decide whether they will file case against Govt or not.
