Early Times Report
srinagar, May 5: The Education Department can solve the problem of unemployment to a great extent if only the government comes out of its shells to fill the vacant posts.
Sources in the civil secretariat believe that more than 34 thousand posts of teachers, Masters, Lecturers, Zonal Education Officers, and other teaching and non teaching posts are lying vacant in the education department alone. "There isn't any policy with the government to advertise these posts", an official said.
The official preferring anonymity said: "We have 45 posts of Zonal Education Officers lying vacant in the department which reflects the non-seriousness of the government to streamline the department."
Sources added that there were 27 thousand posts of subject teachers available with the department besides 7 thousand posts of Headmasters, lecturers, ZEO's, Principals and other gazetted staff. "It is unfortunate to see government's indifference viz-a-viz this vital department."
Jammu and Kashmir Teacher's Forum Chairman Ab. Qayoom Wani said: "You can't afford hiring an Education Volunteer (EV) for 1 thousand rupees per month for ten years."
Wani said that despite full flow of money under RAMSA and SSA, teachers engaged under these schemes were starving for their salaries months together. "There isn't any Independent mechanism available to these flagship programmes", Wani said.
Meanwhile sources in the department revealed that most of the Zonal Education Officers were being given additional charges of other zones, thus affecting their normal work. Unemployed youth have demanded that the vacant posts be advertised without wasting any more time.
