Agartala, Jul 13, 2012 : The storm and dust
sparked by exposure of alleged irregularities in the joint entrance
examination-2012 conducted by the Tripura Board of Joint Entrance
Examination (TBJEE) continues unabated with the opposition targeting the
state government for the alleged scam without any proof . The matter is
now in the Agartala bench of Guwahati high court with altogether eleven
allegedly deprived candidates and their guardians having moved the
court for redressal of their various grievances. But even though the
high court which has seized all the answer scripts from the custody of
the TBJEE authority is looking into the issue, the opposition Congress
has resorted to their traditional confusion peddling programme by
calling a statewide bandh on Friday.
However the state government has not yet taken a position on the issue on the legitimate ground that the issue is sub judice. The chief minister Manik Sarkar who spoke to media last night to announce a package benefit programme for the poorer sections of people refused to make any comment on the issue when asked for reaction. 'The matter is in court and the court's opinion will have to be our opinion; but the TBJEE has made a statement clarifying its position on the matter and I have nothing more to say' said the chief minister.
Similarly, the minister for higher education, veteran Anil Sarkar said that the state government would abide by the order passed by the high court on the Joint Entrance issue.’The state government is not involved in this and we have nothing to lose or gain, so we will abide by the court order' said Sarkar. He added that the state government still believes in the transparency of the TBJEE and the high court is yet to accuse it of any wrong-doing.
