DIMAPUR, MARCH 27 (MExN): The Central Nagaland Students’ Association (CNSA) today expressed deep concern over the imbroglio between the Ao apex organizations – Ao Senden and AKM – and the Nagaland State School Education Department over the implementation of the Rashtriya Madhyamik Siksha Abhijan (RMSA) in Nagaland with regard to the recruitment of language teachers.
A press note from the CNSA lamented the “apathetic attitude” of the concerned authority over the RMSA recruitment drive in Nagaland.
It stated that “blunders” were committed by the concerned authority while advertising the posts for language teachers (MIL) under the RMSA in 2014, and that declaration of the recruitment results in 2015 was a “shock to many people, a disappointment to many aspiring candidates, and a total injustice to the Ao, Sumi and Lotha tribes.”
Questioning the functioning of the concerned authority over the implementation of the RMSA in Nagaland, the CNSA stated “this is nothing but incompetence at its highest point, if not corruption, at its lowest level, putting the education of thousands of students at stake.”
The CNSA expressed support to the decision of the Ao Senden and the Ao Students’ Conference (AKM) over their rejection of the March 22, 2016 advertisement calling for fresh application to the RMSA Language teacher recruitment. It further appealed for the state government to fulfill the demands of the two Ao apex organizations at the earliest.
The CNSA further demanded that the RMSA language teacher recruitment issue be resolved at the earliest, failing which it would be “compelled to take its own course of action.”
