Education Scam

India's future seems to be in danger as an education scam, costing Rs 1,000 Crore,

has been unearthed in Maharashtra

The scam started towards the end of September but came into existence only in the

first week of October, 2011

The schools and education minister Rajendra Darda stated We found that some

divisions altogether did not exist. In some places, same students were made to sit for

the morning school and afternoon schools during the inspection"

Contd

1 student behind every 5 student fraud

1.5 lakh of 7 lakh students were fraud in Nanded district itself.

The scam got unearthed in the Nanded district of Maharashtra where more than

1,40,000 students were termed as bogus

In Sholapur, where school staffs were deployed to hunt for any stray child of school-

going age because, as against 252 students on its rolls, only 70 existed.

It also means that all numbers mentioned in the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyanare a fraud,because there are children out there to be hired for a short time because they dont

go to schools.

Causes Or Footways That Led To Scam

In order to be able to take full benefit of the fund that is allocated to eacheducational institute, the students present in the school/education centre were

falsified. Reason being that the school would use this fund in paying the salaries and

all other expense and the remainder would go into the pockets of the management.

It is also a reality that despite grants, teachers are paid less than the prescribedsalaries but the figures mentioned in the ledgers are as per the scales. Moreover each

school which is run or founded by a politician have been able to stop the officials

from actually looking into the matter before the scam took place.

What Did The State Government Do In

Order To Curb This Problem?

State government in lieu of the education minister conducted a survey

so that each student can be recorded correctly

Indelible ink was used as a mean to track each student

The entire process was carried over the Nanded district in 3500

schools out of which 1500 belong to the Zilla parishad and the

remaining 2000 belong to private aided schools

The inspection was undertaken by 346 squads, excluding the

education officials

Measures That Need To Be Taken To Find Out

If The Problem Prevails In The Other

Districts As Well Apart from the already on going checks and surveys, the state government shouldlook into:

Registering all the un-registered schools and educational institutes: By doing

this the state government can look into or check each school and the total

strength of the school with ease, also providing funds to these schools could beproperly broke down, so that no wastage or unneeded expense will be incurred

Preparing a break up of all the funds needed to be put into schools: A

systemized breakup of the funds should be done in order to see how much funds

would be needed by the school/educational institute

Salary Slabs: The teachers should be paid according to the salary slab, and the

state government should keep a six month check and also the teachers could

give their views and comments on whether if they do receive the pay properly or

not2/27/2013

What Future Mends Can Be Done, So That

Scams Like These Dont Arise Again

Review System: A nationwide review system can be implemented to look into the

data of all the registered schools/educational institutes , this could be implemented

in the following phase:

Each school will be registered along with the total strength of the school and the

number of students present should be mentioned as well

A database should be kept so that each school/educational institute can list the

students names and ID as well

Each registered school should have a virtual database apart from the physical

records and the government should help the aided schools to do so

Ethics

The reason why the educational system was set up is not serving its purpose

In fact it is doing things which is not only immoral but also posing a threat for the

new generation who are supposed to uplift the country

The country as a whole suffers in scams like these because more than required

grants are given to the authorities who misuse them for their own personal use

As of now Maharashtra is affected by the scam but the question still remains what

about rest of the country

Even after all the surveys and checks are done another question remains what about

the teachers that were hired to teach, they would all be out of jobs.

The government should make necessary provisions for them, probably employ them

in programmes which talk about the various benefits that education can provide2/27/2013
