ে 279 jobs of primary teachers have been canceled by the order of the High Court. Among those teachers is the daughter of a CPM leader in Kalna, East Burdwan. The whole incident has caused political uproar.
It is learned that out of 269 people dismissed, 18 were from East Burdwan. Among those 17 was Baishakhi Bose Mallick, daughter of CPM leader Birendranath Bose Mallick of Kalna. Birendranath Babu was a councilor of Kalna municipality for a long time. He was also the vice-president of the CPM’s primary school teachers’ association. Not only that, Baishakhi’s husband Shubhashis Sarkar also became the CPM candidate in ward no. 18 of Kalna municipality in 2015. Baishakhi’s mother was also a member of the Democratic Women’s Association at one time. Involvement in the recruitment of a family member belonging to a far-left organization has become a hot topic in state politics. It is learned that Baishakhi 7 was in the second place in the list of districts Baishakhi joined Kandapara Primary School as a teacher in January 2016
Left leaders are protesting against the Trinamool Congress alleging nepotism by appointing primary teachers Demonstrations are taking place in different parts of the state In this situation, the district leadership of the CPM is naturally uneasy as only one leader of the party is involved in the appointment of Prathmi. According to local residents, there is no one in the Basumallik family who has not got a government job It has become clear by what magic they got the government job. In this context, the Trinamool did not stop mocking the left. Kalpana Trinamool MLA Devprasad Bagh said, “It has been proved that the claim made by the opposition that only grassroots people have got jobs is not correct.” This is a matter for the court to decide. We will not comment on this. “
