Minister confirms delay in PU results
April 18, 2016, Bengaluru, DHNS
The State government appears to be at its wits’ end in solving the impasse over the evaluation of second PU answer scripts. They, however, appear to have managed to ensure a smooth beginning for the SSLC evaluation beginning from Monday.
After it failed to break ice with the agitating lecturers and its alternative plans backfired, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Kimmane Rathnakar admitted that there could be a 10-day delay in PU results. He, however, assured both parents and the students “not to worry,” and asked them to focus on CET exams. He said PU evaluation could begin on April 20.
The Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board has issued orders to 67,000 teachers to report for evaluation work. Out of this 25,000 teachers under the Karnataka State Aided Schools and Colleges Employees Association and Karnataka Rajya Badti Sarkari Praudashala Shikashakara Sangha have decided to boycott evaluations. The rest, all government teachers under the Karnataka State High School Assistant Masters Association will be attending work, assured heads of the association.
On Sunday, efforts to complete the coding and decoding by deputing staff from other wings of the primary education failed as many of them could not comprehend the work. Meanwhile, the agitating PU lecturers said they wouldn’t attend the valuation work unless their demands are met.
Ajay Seth, principal secretary, Department of Primary and Secondary Education, however, said they are roping 4,000 retired PU lecturers in addition to the qualified SSLC teachers who are due for promotions.
Around 7,000 lecturers from unaided colleges have also been engaged in the evaluation work.
According to Seth, 11,000 lecturers will be reporting to work as against the required 17,000. “We may need 16 to 17 days to complete the evaluations.” Rathnakar announced that lecturers from the 11 colleges on which the CID conducted raids would be dropped from evaluation work.
