Karnataka High Court cancels board exams for 5th, 8th standards

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court on Friday cancelled the board examinations for the fifth and eighth standards from this academic year. The ministry of education was all set to hold the board exams from this academic year.
The bench headed by Justice Pradeep Singh Yerur opined that as per rules, the board exams for fifth and eighth classes could be held from the next year.
RUPSA president Lokesh Talikatte had filed a petition in the High Court challenging the public exams for fifth and eighth standard students. He had challenged the new evaluation process from the academic year 2022-23 in an order dated December 12, 2022.
The petition was submitted before a single bench seeking a stay on the order. The appeal was filed before the division bench later.
The division bench headed by Chief Justice P.B. Varale and Justice Ashok S. Kinagi has also opined against conducting public exams. The single bench order has been given following the direction of the division bench.
The board exams for the fifth and eighth standards had faced stiff resistance. Parents had questioned the necessity of board exams for these classes, when the CBSE does not hold exams for them. It was alleged that the education department is encouraging the tuition mafia.
The proposal to hold board exams for lower classes was dropped earlier also when S. Suresh Kumar was the Minister for Education due to stiff opposition by the parents.

Outrage over hiring of APTECH by J&K Services Selection Board

[ad_1]
Srinagar, Mar 06: The engagement of APTECH by the Services Selection Board (SSB) for conducting computer-based job tests in Jammu & Kashmir has come under severe criticism in Jammu & Kashmir.
Claiming that the firm has been blacklisted in several States, the job aspirants, civil society actors and politicians are up in arms over the SSB’s move to hire APTECH firm for conducting computer-based job tests in Jammu and Kashmir.
As per the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), social media platforms were flooded with angry reactions over engagement of the APTECH by the SSB for conducting computer-based job tests in Jammu & Kashmir.
The hashtag#Aptech blacklisted is trending on the twitter, with netizens appealing J&K administration to scrap the contract with the firm to save future of youth of J&K.
“Students of J&K are crying due to mess created by JKSSB. What hardworking students will get when blacklisted company will conduct exams. Aptech is scam & JKSSB is destroying careers of youth. This company should be banned forever. #JKSSB #Aptech,” social media influencer and aspiring politician Guftar Choudhary tweeted.
Lawyer and former Congress spokesman Deepika Puskhar Nath said that hiring of APTECH firm is a sheer fraud with job aspirants.
“Hiring dubious #Aptech exam conducting agency for the state level recruitment is a sheer fraud with the aspirants. #AptechBlacklisted tampered with Central level exams and one can imagine the susceptibility of #JKSSB exams. Restore Merit system, save meritorious youth of J&K,” she wrote on twitter. Political leaders also assailed the move of hiring APTECH.
“I have received a lot of emails and messages about Aptech which has been blacklisted in other states. Given the shoddy track record of the past, SSRB better tread with caution. Students need to be heard. You can’t thrust a blacklisted company on our future,” PC chief Sajad Gani Lone tweeted.

National Conference chief spokesperson Imran Nabi Dar also lambasted the administration over awarding contract to the blacklisted firm, saying it is a move to “destroy” career of local youth. “JKSSB is the enfant terrible of the incumbent J&K administration. The board in spite of addressing the genuine concerns and fear of the educated, skilled local youth seems hell-bent to destroy their future by continuously persisting with a blacklisted company,” Dar said.
The J&K congress unit on its official Twitter handle said that it stands with aspirants who are suffering due to the illegitimate alliance of Aptech + JKSSB + corrupt officials + BJP leaders.
Chief Spokesperson of Democratic Azad Party (DAP) Salman Nizami termed the awarding of contract to Aptech Limited a “deep rooted conspiracy”. “Awarding a contract to blacklisted Aptech by JKSSB seems a deep rooted conspiracy to spoil the future of J&K’s youth. The contract should be withdrawn immediately and in future never to engage with such companies,” Nizami said—(KNO)

Shia Board asks people to build replicas of Jannat-ul-Baqi

[ad_1]
Lucknow: The All India Shia Personal Law Board has appealed to the Shia community to build replicas of Jannat-ul-Baqi in every Shia populated area.
The call was made in Lucknow, while holding a protest meeting against the Saudi monarchy for demolishing the Islamic cemetery Jannat-ul-Baqi, 100 years ago in Madina.
The board members also asked Shia Muslims to continue to protest in order to commemorate the 100th anniversary of demolition of the holy site.
Maulana Saim Mehdi, the president of the board, has sent a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and demanded that he mount diplomatic pressure on the Saudi Arabian government to reconstruct the Baqi cemetery.
Maulana Yasoob Abbas, general secretary of the board, said: “The sacrilege of holy shrines is against the preaching of the Quran as well as against the tradition of the prophet. Saudi Arabia provides funds to terror outfits in Pakistan and Afghanistan for the genocide of Shias.”
Maulana Ejaz Athar, vice president of the board, said that the UN should ask Pakistan and Afghanistan to take measures to curb and stop the Shia genocide.
