[lg policy] Karnataka (Udipi): Centre has a vital role in formulating language policy

[Harold Schiffman]

Udupi Jan 9: Primary and Secondary Education Minister Vishweshwara
Hegde Kageri said on Friday that the Government would adopt a new
system to ensure immediate disbursal of salaries to the teachers.

Speaking to presspersons before inaugurating the new building of the
District Institute for Education and Training (DIET), Mr. Kageri said
that the salaries of teachers had been delayed by about four months.
The Government had now released Rs. 400 crore on this account and the
rest would be released shortly. He said that he had directed the chief
executive officers and chief accounts officers of zilla panchayats to
disburse salaries of teachers on priority.  The delay was due to some
problems in the link document. “I have instructed them to see that
such confusion does not arise in future,” he said.

On involving teachers of CBSE and ICSE schools in the child census
despite a Supreme Court order to the contrary, Mr. Kageri agreed that
the Supreme Court had passed such an order. But the census was an
important task. “We have taken due precautions to see that it is not
to the detriment of students and that their studies are not affected,”
he said.
Mr. Kageri said that the Centre had a vital role in formulating
language policy. This would put an end to all problems regarding the
medium of instruction. To a question, Mr. Kageri said that there was
good response to the change in the question paper pattern for the SSLC
examination.
