Tripura Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha on Wednesday handed over appointment letters to 1,452 newly recruited teachers at the International Hapania Ground, highlighting the state government’s commitment to transparent, impartial and merit-based recruitment.
Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister said that since the establishment of the BJP-led “double-engine” government in Tripura, transparency and merit have remained the top priorities in the recruitment process.
According to the Chief Minister, a total of 23,986 individuals have secured government jobs during the tenure of the present government. Additionally, around 26,000 people have obtained employment through contractual and outsourcing arrangements, reflecting the government’s efforts to expand employment opportunities across the state.
The latest appointment drive includes 766 teachers who qualified through the Teachers’ Eligibility Test (TET-2) and 686 candidates selected through the Selection Test for Graduate Teachers (STGT).
Dr. Manik Saha expressed confidence that the newly appointed teachers would make valuable contributions to strengthening the education system and shaping the future of the younger generation. He emphasized that quality education would play a crucial role in achieving the vision of a ‘Viksit Bharat’ by 2047.
Dr. Milind Dhamrao Ramteke and other dignitaries were also present at the programme.
