Teacher in India goes unpaid for two decades after clerical errors

When the High Court ordered his reinstatement in 1989, he marked the victory by naming his new daughter “Winning” but the Communist-led government ignored the ruling and reportedly demanded more than £700 in bribes to enforce the ruling. Mr Haque named his second daughter “Contempt” to highlight his disappointment.

Now he is taking his case to the Supreme Court and is hoping for support from the state’s new chief minister, Mamata “Didi” Bannerjee, whose Trinamool Congress party ended more than 30 years of Communist rule in a landslide victory last year.

“I could not afford the [bribe] money. So I had to wait for so many years for the government to change. That has [now] happened. I only have Didi as my hope. With all her concern for teachers’ salaries, I am sure she will help me,” he said.
