Meanwhile, opposition Congress blamed that only 9.01 percent people in Tripura were ‘educated’ and the state government did not initiate any attempt to improve the situation rather intentionally stayed away from implementation of National Curriculum Framework (NCF) introduced in 2005 by almost all the state to improve education system.
“The penetration of schools, colleges, universities and technical institutions are lowest in Tripura among other northeastern states and the education system in Tripura has been suffering from un-trained, inadequate and mal-distribution of teachers, which are solely responsible for poor performance of the students,” they alleged.
