    Recruitment scam: WBSSC publishes list of 3,478 Group C staff with manipulated marks

    Kolkata: The West Bengal School Service Commission (WBSSC) on Monday published on its website a list of 3,478 candidates who reportedly have qualified for appointment as non-teaching staff in different state-run schools through manipulation of marks.

    The list, uploaded on the commission’s website as per the order of Calcutta High Court’s Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay, has clearly shown how marks as low as “0” to “1” in the optical mark recognition (OMR) sheets have increased to as high as “54” to 57″ in the server.

    The discrepancies in the marks in the OMR sheets and those in the commission’s server was brought to limelight by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) investigating the multi-crore teachers and non-teaching staff recruitment scam. Now, by officially uploading that disparity on this website late Monday afternoon, the WBSSC authorities too have endorsed the CBI’s findings in the matter.

    The list published on the website of the commission on Monday has three columns. The first and second columns carry the names and roll numbers of the candidates concerned. The third column mentioned the published marks as shown in the commission’s website and the fourth column showed the actual marks scored in the OMR sheet.

    Similar discrepancies in marks in the OMR sheets and on the commission’s server was also noted by the Calcutta High Court last year in case of recruitment of secondary teachers.

    Till the time the report was filed, not a single Trinamool Congress leader was willing to come forward with any comment on the matter. However, the opposition leaders in the state lambasted the state government and the ruling party in the matter.

    “Previously it was thought that 80 per cent of the recruitments were illegal and at least in the case of 20 per cent the eligible candidates secured jobs. But now it seems that 100 per cent of the recruitment is illegal,” said CPI-M Central Committee member Sujan Chakraborty.

    Senior state BJP leader Rahul Sinha said that this is an organised crime and it is not possible that it was conducted without the knowledge of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

    Tral, Mar 04: A youth from southern Kashmir inspired by renowned Sufi poets has published his first book in Kashmiri to promote Sufi literature besides the Kashmiri language.

    Zahid Manzoor Bhat, a resident of Gutroo village in Aripal Tehsil of Tral, said that listening to Sufi saints since his childhood inspired him to pen down hundreds of poems, most of them in Kashmiri.

    “Sufi poets like Rajab Hamid, Rasool Mir, Shamas Fakeer, Rahim Sopore inspired me since my childhood.Once a Teacher Namely Abdul Rashid saw some couplets on my notebook While checking when i was in class 8th then he said you will become a poet”. And by listening and reading the writings of sufi poets, I have written over 500 poems. Most of my poems are Naat and Hamud,” Bhat said while talking with the news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO).

    After a lot of struggle Bhat turned his poetry collection into a book which he wasn’t able to do due to financial issues.

    “My father died when I was just 3 years old and we got some help from a Yateem trust and after completing my Bachelors, I started to work as a private school teacher where I am getting meager salary to take care of my family which comprises of the mother, grandmother and the younger brother,” he said. “I wanted to publish my book but I am hardly fulfilling the needs of the family, but now some friends helped to publish the first book, titled “Hayaatuk-Aab ”.

    Bhat said most of his work is yet to be published while besides promoting Sufism, the main motive behind writing the poems in Kashmiri is to promote the mother tongue.

    “In my poems, I have touched social issues as well. We are losing our culture which is our identity and are only propagating western culture,” he said.

    “Our valley is full of talent, but the financial issues and lack of platform are becoming an obstacle for thousands of youth to get their dreams fulfilled,” he said—(KNO)
