Departments in deep
slumber
Tahir Mushtaq
RAMBAN, May 05:
Contrary the tall claims of the state education department and district
administration to provide hassle free education to the students, there are many
government education institutes in the state which lacks proper accommodation
besides understaffed.
Government Higher
Secondary School (GHSS) Ramban is among one such glaring example of the apathy
attitude of the concern department due to which more than 1000 students of the
said school are forces to study in compressed atmosphere.
Sources further said
that the PWD has completed the Block A by constructed 6 rooms which was
inaugurated by the then Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA) Ramban Ashok Kumar
on 16-10-2014 as mentioned on the inaugural stone.
Sources disclosed that
in year 1976 the school was upgraded from High School to Higher Secondary, but
after the completion of 40 years the strength of students about 10 times more
that of upgraded time, but the sanctioned post of staff remain same which is
also cause of concern.
“What is more
intriguing is that the education department has even failed to introduce all
subjects in this school including Physical Education, Botany, Environmental
Science n Commerce stream whereas for Zoology and Economics the department
appointed lecturer on contractual basis, moreover for 900 students of English
subject there are only one lecturer” they shared.
Sources maintained
that adding to their woes the education department has recently transfer the
principal to the DIET Batote owing which it is hard to deal with thousands of
students without administration.
Simika Butyal a
student of science stream of 12th class said that it is
very difficult for to attend the class as there are very less accommodation as
to tackle huge strength of students.

Another student
Shahida Akther of 11th class said that as the
summer is knocking, we are not able to concentrate on our studies as the
drainage system is not properly maintained outside the school which producing
foul smell.

When contacted
District Development Commissioner (DDC) Ramban Mohammad Aijaz said the work of
the construction of extension building was delayed due to the non-payment of
bills from the education department, but still the PWD and contractor manage to
work. He further said that it will take some more time to complete the work.
