Early Times Report
JAMMU, April 13: Authorities sitting at the helm of affairs in State Board of School Education (BOSE) have wreaked havoc with the reputation of the Board.
Sources said that on the specific directions of the Minister concerned, BOSE authorities have adjusted over 6000 illegally admitted for the ETT examination. They added that for the purpose, the examination scheduled for April 15 has been postponed at the eleventh hour putting nearly 30000 thousands in disarray.
Sources disclosed that on the instance of Minister the Secretariat had issued No Objection Certificate for establishment of nearly 50 ETT institutes for the session 2009-11. The last NoC was issued in the month of February 2011. Thereafter, all these colleges admitted candidates at their own. In a bid to legalize these illegal admissions, sources said that the institutes sent lists of their candidates so that their candidates could also appear in examinations without even completing 180 days of mandatory class work.
To keep the particular lobby of the ETT institutes happy, sources averred that the Minister managed the postponement of examinations. If sources are to be believed, career of nearly 30,000 students have been put on the stake by a particular lobby as just few days before the commencement of the exams, they have been forced to alter the examination schedule.
Even, the examination machinery of the BOSE has failed to cope up with the increase in the number of candidates at the last hours. They had not even issued roll number slips to the existing candidates. “The decision was taken just yesterday evening and it has surprised thousands of aspirants who had taken admission in various colleges of the state”, said a source.
The exams were scheduled to begin from April 15. “In order to accommodate the their blue eyed boys who have much influence and are close to power corridors, examination centres have been set up in the schools. Which leave field open for the mass copying in the centres for which state already is famous for”, sources said.
Sources said that even the rules are being changed for the ETT course on the direction of the Minister who has big stakes in the education sector as he is supporting a particular lobby of the colleges, while others having little influence are being denied and harassed. “We will not allow this; they are playing with the career of the students. We have to face harassment time and again”, said Surinder Gupta, chairman of one of the ETT colleges.
Deep Singh, who also runs a college alleged that particular minister is openly supporting some colleges while other are being ignored. “We all are quite amazed at the decision of the BOSE to postpone the exams, but they never thought of about 30,000 students, but in order to support few colleges they have taken this decision”, Singh alleged.
