The Education department has forced its way landing into another controversy yet again. Whatever their feeble excuse or justification is, for cancellation of RMSA Teachers’ recruitment exam, is unjustifiable, illogical and absurd. The less said the better about the messed department. Almost every morning, we see the front page of local dailies, flashed with controversies associated with education department. To make the story short, let’s look at and ponder on some few candid questions:- 1. If Lok Sabha election is the reason for exam cancellation? Then when does the Election Commissioner announce the Election Schedule? Do we need some Estein or Aryabhatta alike to man the department to chalk out the convenient date of exam? Even a rustic, the illiterate farmers knows well of how to chalk out his convenient cropping, festivals and rituals schedules. 2. Who really make the policy decisions in the department? Are the Directors, Addl. Directors, Joint Directors, Deputy Directors etc, for whom crores of rupees are spent, of any worth? Why can’t they even decide the mere convenient exam date? If exam is to be cancelled why at least not before a week or two? 3. Why playing football with educated unemployed careers? Is the fate of 2 (two) Naga M.P.s, who will start looting public funds once won, and who will be more concerned about their personal comfort, luxuries and Self-aggrandizement, really more important than the fate and career of lakhs of unemployed young Nagas. 4. Isn’t exam cancellation amount to ‘slap on the faces of educated unemployed Nagas’? Isn’t the exam cancellation implies the casual attitude and treatment meted to educated employed section? What about the travel expenses and wastage of time and energy of students, especially the rural lots? Will the department ever spare some bit of thought about that? 5. What about late and shortage of school text book supply? What about the teachers’ salary (Under CSS)? What about what not’s? Are the funds from Centrally Sponsored Schemes (SSA, RMSA, etc) really meant for poll expenditure of politicians or the certain political parties. Is there anybody listening?
