AGARTALA, May 29 (TIWN): With another major shock to the quality education of state, Tripura's highly qualified unemployed youths revealed that state is burdened with 600 number of scholars, who have completed their P.hD or already passed SLET/ NET under UGC. But since 6 to 7 years there is no recruitment for Asst Professors whereas Colleges are still undergoing heavy crisis of Asst Professors. Tripura Govt although busy in College building inaugurations with Central funds; with the additional desire of becoming number one in literacy, education, higher education rate but the Colleges which are 90 % dominated by SFI, DYFI and plenty of guest lecturers; lack sufficient number of Assistant Professors. Even though state govt under the pressure of Election, Supreme Court suddenly showering sympathy for B.Ed qualified unemployed youths.
