He emphasized that demonstrations do not guarantee job creation and highlighted the government's commitment to transparent recruitment processes.​

During the ceremony, 66 undergraduate teachers and 162 graduate teachers received appointment letters. Dr. Saha noted that the current administration has provided government jobs to 17,554 individuals through direct recruitment, contributing to a significant decline in the state's unemployment rate. He stated that employment opportunities have increased rapidly under the government's transparent recruitment policy.​

Citing data, the Chief Minister pointed out that in the 2018-19 fiscal year, Tripura's unemployment rate was 10%, compared to the national average of 5.8%.
