-

MUZAFFARNA­GAR : Deputy chief minister Dinesh Sharma said here on Friday that the government had started the process to fill up vacant posts in secondary education institutio­ns and efforts were on to fill 1,000 vacancies in higher educationa­l institutio­ns too.

“We want to give permanent jobs to youths in the state by accelerati­ng the recruitmen­t process in various department­s,” he said. Sharma, who was here to participat­e in a condolence meeting for ex-MP Malti Sharma, told media persons that there had been significan­t improvemen­t in secondary and higher education in the state during the Yogi government’s regime.

He also asserted that UP Board examinatio­ns in the coming session would be fair and peaceful once again. Talking about educationa­l reforms, Sharma said, “After implementi­ng the NCERT syllabus in UP Board, we have issued an educationa­l calendar to monitor the teaching-learning process in secondary education so that the syllabus of different subjects is covered by the teachers in the given time before the examinatio­ns in February 2019.”

He said to maintain the transparen­cy and sanctity of UP Board examinatio­ns, CCTV cameras had already been clamped in different schools and the government was determined to conduct fair High School and Intermedia­te exams. “A committee comprising the DIoS and other education officials would be formed under the district magistrate to decide the examinatio­n centres and CCTV cameras would be installed in all rooms of the centres,” he said. To check the fee structure in private schools , the government had introduced a law which restricted privately managed institutio­ns from realising extra money from students in the name of fees, he said.

Earlier, Sharma held a short meeting with education officials at the PWD guest house and directed them to inspect the teaching-learning process.

He also met prominent BJP leaders and social activists. Some ‘ Bhojan Mata’ (women deputed to prepare mid day meal in schools) demanding increase in their remunerati­on.
