Enhancement of B Ed course duration discriminatory: Harshdev

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, July 1:   Harshdev Singh, chairman JKNPP and former Education Minister has termed the Government decision of extending duration and eligibility criteria for the B Ed courses vis-à-vis Jammu Division in comparison to Kashmir Division as a cruel joke on the teaching aspirants of Jammu and sprinkling salts on their wounds.
He wondered how could two Universities in one State with same Chancellor,   Pro- Chancellor and the Ministry of Higher Education can adopt two distinct policies regarding the same course.  “The obnoxious move is utterly unconstitutional, unethical and unscrupulous,” he added and also questioned the criminal silence of the BJP Ministers over the issue.
“Ironically, Saffron Party’s honeymoon with the ministerial berths continued at the cost of the aspirations of the youth and the day is not far when the seething anger of the young blood would burst and blow the BJP to smithereens and close the curtains for them once and for all”, Harsh warned.
