Agartala Feb 24: A group of job aspirants, who cleared the Selection Test for Graduate Teacher (STGT) in 2022, once again knocked the door of Sikhsha Bhavan, Agartala on Monday demanding immediate recruitment.

The aspirants while talking to the reporters tried to draw attention of chief minister Dr Manik Saha who also holds the portfolio of education minister, urging him to expedite the process.

One of the STGT qualified candidates said, three years have already passed since we cleared the examination. We wanted to meet the Chief Minister several times but we didn't get proper response.

"Vacant posts and qualified candidates are available and the schools have shortage of teachers. But, still, the government is not recruiting," the candidate said while speaking to the media.

There are media reports that the State Government is on a move to increase the number of seats. In that case, we request the Chief Minister, who also holds Education portfolio, to appoint all the STGT qualified candidates of 2022 together, another aspirant said.
