EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, May 17:
Working chairman Jammu Kashmir National Panthers Party and MLA Harsh Dev Singh has alleged total collapse of educational edifice in the state with academic activity having become the major causality of bureaucratic red tape and official negligence.
Claiming that more than 10,000 posts of teachers, RETs, Masters, Lecturers etc were vacant in various educational institutions of the state, he said that the remote area schools were the major sufferers and had almost become defunct due to staff paucity and non-availability of teaching faculty.
He strongly condemned the failure of the government to create posts for various High and Higher Secondary Schools created and up-graded after the year 2007, thus adversely affecting not only the pass percentage of the said schools but also jeopardizing the careers of students who were made to pursue the courses without formal teaching guides. He said that the cabinet decision taken in July 2010 for filling up the vacant posts of teachers in remote and pad pocket areas on RET pattern had neither been honoured nor had any step been initiated in this regard. He said there were protests and demonstrations in various far flung and remote areas against staff shortage but the govt. was completely averse to this significant aspect.
Harsh Dev Singh decried in particular the total failure of the government to launch RMSA (Rashtriya Madhyamik Shiksha Abhiyan) in the state which though was started all over the country in 2008.
Singh said that RMSA was the most ambitious project of Government of India, which if implemented in proper perspective, had the potential to transform the entire secondary system of education.
He deplored that funds provided under RMSA during the last three years for staff creation, for infrastructure creation and for other developmental related activity in Education had remained completely unspent and un-utilized due to gross negligence, apathy, neglect and red- tape of the concerned officers and bureaucrats.
JKNPP leader further rapped the Education Department for its written reply given in Assembly in response to Starred AQ No. 534 which has proved to be false and misleading.
