Notice to Hiremath over proposal of SSLC results based on grading system: Suresh Kumar
Bengaluru: Karnataka Minister for Primary and Secondary Education, Suresh Kumar on Sunday said that a notice will be issued to the Additional Commissioner for Public Instruction Dharwad for proposing the grant results to the SSLC students based on grading system.
Speaking to reporters on Sunday, he said that a meeting was held under the chairmanship of Major Sidalingaiah Hiremath, the Additional Commissioner for Public Instruction wherein it was decided it will be better to give the SSLC results of 2019-20 based on the midterm examination grading.
"The Commissioner has no authority to take such a decision", Suresh Kumar clarified.
"Department officials are only responsible for the implementation of the policy formulated by the Government from time to time. They cannot hold meetings and take decisions. Therefore, the decision of the council headed by this officer is of no importance. A copy of the resolution is circulating on social networking sites. Students and parents should not trust this decision" the minister appealed.
In the meeting of department officials at Dharwad division, it was discussed that more than 700 centers and above 2.6 lakh students had to be catered to and it will be difficult to arrange transport and to maintain social distancing norms at examination centers. Each center has about 350-400 students appearing, and it is impossible to increase the number of examination centers.
Major Siddalingayya S Hiremath, the Additional Commissioner for Public Instruction, Dharwad; had chaired this meeting.
