Partha meets SSC candidates

West Bengal Education minister Partha Chatterjee Tuesday said those candidates who have qualified in the School Service Commission (SSC) examination and have the requisite qualification will get call for interview in due course.

After meeting the representatives of the SSC candidates at his office, Chatterjee told reporters, "I listened to what they said. They need not feel scared."
Asked about the threat by a section of SSC candidates to continue their sit-in near Kolkata Press Club, which began on last Thursday, Chatterjee shot back, "Let them do whatever they wish."
About Tuesday's agitation by a group of teachers of Shishu Shiksha Kendras (SSK) for regularisation of their service and higher pay scales, the minister said, "The government is sympathetic to their issue."
The SSKs, in panchayat areas, had been set up to impart education to children not having access to any existing primary school,
