    Intermediate practical examinations

    Hyderabad: Telangana State Board of Intermediate Education (TSBIE) has decided to reduce inter first practical exam syllabus to 70 percent. However, there will be no change in inter second year syllabus.

    The practical exams are scheduled to be held in February 2023.

    As per the press release by TSBIE, there will be no change in the theory syllabus of inter exams for first and second year. The inter exams for both years will be conducted in 100 percent syllabus.

    Demand to postpone exams

    Meanwhile, a few students are demanding the postponement of Telangana inter practical exams alleging that no practical classes were conducted in their colleges.

    In some junior colleges, practical classes are not conducted in inter first. In the second year too, the classes are held just before the examination thereby leaving students confused.

    It is alleged that some colleges don’t even have proper equipment needed to conduct lab.

    English likely to be added to Telangana inter practical exams

    TSBIE is gearing up to introduce English practical lab in intermediate courses.

    From next academic year, the English practical exam is likely to be conducted for 20 marks by reducing the weightage of the English theory exam to 80.

    The board has taken this decision to improve the spoken and comprehension skills of the inter students.

  • Out on parole, Dera chief Ram Rahim cuts cake with sword; video goes viral

    Out on parole, Dera chief Ram Rahim cuts cake with sword; video goes viral

    New Delhi: Currently out on parole, Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim was seen “celebrating” by cutting a cake with a sword.

    The Sirsa-Dera chief who is serving a 20-year jail term for rape and murder, walked out on a 40 day parole from the Sunaria Jail in Haryana’s Rohtak district on Saturday and arrived at his Barnawa Ashram in Uttar Pradesh’s Baghpat.

    A video of the celebration by Ram Rahim with the giant cake has gone viral on social media.

    In his bail application, Ram Rahim had said that he wants to attend an event to mark the birth anniversary of former dera chief Shah Satnam Singh on January 25.

    In the purported video that has surfaced on social media, the Dera chief can be heard saying, “Got a chance after five years to celebrate like this so I should cut at least five cakes. This is the first cake.”

    Incidentally, public display of weapons i.e cutting a cake with a sword is prohibited under the Arms Act.

    Ram Rahim had on Monday virtually inaugurated a mega cleanliness campaign organized by his sect’s volunteers across multiple locations in Haryana and in some other states. A few senior Bharatiya Janata Party leaders from Haryana, including Rajya Sabha MP Krishan Lal Panwar and former minister Krishan Kumar Bedi, also participated in the event.

    This is the fourth time in the last 14 months and the second time in less than three months that Ram Rahim has been granted parole. Earlier, he was released on parole for 40 days in October 2022 ahead of the Haryana panchayat election and the Adampur Assembly bypoll.

    He was convicted by a special CBI court in Panchkula in August 2017 for raping two women followers. CBI had registered the case on the orders passed by the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in 2003 and taken over the investigation of the case earlier registered at Police Station Sadar in Kurukshetra.

    It was alleged that Ranjit Singh, a resident of village Khanpur Kolian, Kurukshetra was murdered on July 10, 2002, when he was working in his fields at village Khanpur Kolian of District Kurukshetra in Haryana.

    After a thorough investigation, CBI filed a charge sheet in 2007 against six accused and charges were framed in 2008 while, on October 8, 2021, the court convicted Rahim and four others in connection with former Dera manager Ranjit Singh’s murder case.
