Unemployment Crisis Takes Center Stage at Tripura Assembly

The CPI(M) plans to address unemployment during the upcoming Tripura Assembly session. The Democratic Youth Federation of India urged the Leader of Opposition to highlight the issue. Previously completed recruitment processes were scrapped by the ruling BJP government. Other issues like corruption and law and order will also be discussed.

The CPI(M) is poised to spotlight the pressing issue of unemployment during the forthcoming two-day session of the Tripura Assembly, starting Friday. This move was confirmed by the party leaders on Thursday.

A delegation from the Democratic Youth Federation of India, bearing the torch for the Left party's youth, initiated a meet with Leader of Opposition Jitendra Chaudhury. They urged him to champion the cause on the Assembly floor.

Post-meeting, Nabarun Deb highlighted that the Left Front government had previously conducted interviews for 15,000 positions across various departments in 2016-17. This process was halted, Deb alleged, by the BJP administration, which annulled these interviews in favor of a new hiring policy.
