Vacancies in Education Deptt

Sir,
There are 19,000 posts of teachers vacant in the State. These posts need to be filled at the earliest to ensure that shortage of staff may not affect academic ambience of schools.
Shortage of staff particularly  in rural areas is one of the reasons of poor performance in Government run schools in the State. It may be mentioned here that there are many posts vacant despite the Service Selection Board’s recent notification of selection of teachers fast-track employment scheme.
Education is one sectors where there is no compromise. The Government instead of focussing on this sector, usually attaches no importance to it. This is why Private Sector with all its draw backs is growing in the State. This automatically has pushed Government schools in the background.
There is urgent need to revamp the working of these schools at the earliest. Any delay  would further erode their credibility.
Yours etc….
