Tripura government has warned government school teachers of the state to stop private tuitions immediately or else, leave the job.

State education minister Ratan Lal Nath on Sunday said that administration will conduct raids from Tuesday to stop private tuition by such teachers.

“Several notices were served earlier to restrain the private tuitions by the government teachers since 1996. Even the High Court ordered to ban private tuitions done by the government, its aided and private schools in 2015. We favour the High Court decision,” Nath said.

“We will not allow the government teachers to continue private tuition as it is objectionable and we will start conducting raid from June 8,” he added.

He said if they desire to earn extra money, they can leave the government job and continue their private coaching.
