Academics Call for Dismantling of Cap Xi as it Delays Sessions

The Centralized Admission Process (CAP) for Std XI entry in Junior Colleges located in the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) is causing the academic session to start late, according to academics who say it should be scrapped. Ravindra Fadnavis, sarvakaryavah of the Maharashtra Rajya Shikshan Sanstha Parishad, stated that the issue of the delayed session start is one of several problems with the CAP which they wish to resolve.

Within Vidarbha, the earliest date that schools and junior colleges can begin is June 26th, but colleges located outside of the city limits have the freedom to skip the CAP and take direct admissions beginning on this date. Fadnavis suggests this is due to the popularity of tuition classes in which students, especially those prepping for medical or engineering competitive exams, get much of their education from private classes which run ahead of the academic calendar of the colleges.

The Education Department is maintaining that CAP is in place as a convenience for prospective students, allowing them to apply to multiple colleges only having to fill out one form. Despite the issue of delayed start to the academic session, there have been few if any complaints from stakeholders who benefit from the process. Moving forward, authorities are looking towards solutions to this issue which minimizes the disruption of the academic year.

Cabinet Reshuffle In Odisha: Latest News From India

On Monday, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik’s cabinet in Odisha will be seeing a reshuffle with new ministers likely to be appointed. An official oath-taking ceremony will be held at 9.50 am at the Convention Centre of Lok Seva Bhavan in Bhubaneswar.

The Cabinet reshuffle has been necessitated as two Ministers resigned from their posts and one more position was vacant after Health and Family Welfare Minister Naba Kishore Das passed away earlier this year.

The recently elected MLA from the Biju Janta Dal (BJD) party and daughter of Naba Kishore Das, Deepali Das, took oath last week, standing for her fathers constituency in the Jharsuguda by-election. She was victorious in the vote against the competing BJP candidate, Tankadhar Tripathy.

Roles in the Biju Janata Dal (BJD) will be given to the Ministers who resigned, preceding the General Elections next year. Tamil Nadu’s RMC has predicted light to heavy rainfall and thunderstorms in several districts of the state.

The Biju Janta Dal (BJD) is a regional party which currently governs the state of Odisha, and is led by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik. The party’s main goal is to achieve overall development in the state of Odisha and encourage economic progress. Besides that, they are known to follow progressive and secular ideals.

Union Minister reports Pressure on Kuki MLAs for Demanding Separate State in Manipur

The Manipur crisis has been ongoing for some time now, and it hit a tipping point this month as Kuki leaders across the state, including 10 MLAs, issued a demand for a separate political administration (equivalent to a separate state) due to pressure from militants and other powers.

Union Minister of State for External Affairs and Education Rajkumar Ranjan Singh informed Prime Minister Narendra Modi of the worsening situation in Manipur, noting that the demand for a separate state was made in complete dismay and frustration. In his letter to the Prime Minister, Singh stressed that any form of balkanization of Manipur based on ethnicity cannot be encouraged.

The crisis began in late May when violence erupted between the Meitei and Kuki populations, resulting in 71 deaths, 300 injuries, and 16 of the state’s districts experiencing unrest. Over 25,000 people were displaced, while nearly 1,700 homes and 200 vehicles were destroyed in the chaos.

The Union Minister requested financial aid from the Central government in order to compensate for the losses people have endured and to continue stationing Army and Paramilitary forces in the state until peace and normalcy have been restored. Singh acknowledged that the trust deficit between the Meitei and Kuki communities is currently low, but he urged for a peaceful resolution to be sought moving forward.

He proposed a mutual dialogue between the two communities as the path to recovery and reiterated that no party can be blamed for the crisis – it was an unfortunate humanitarian crisis at the hands of immature minds.

Haj Pilgrims from Lucknow Make First Departure to Jeddah

On Sunday, the first batch of Haj pilgrims left for Jeddah in Saudi Arabia from Lucknow in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh Minister Danish Azad Ansari expressed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had sent well wishes to all the pilgrims before their departure. Chairman of Uttar Pradesh Haj Committee, Mohsin Raza also praised the efforts of UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and PM Modi for providing remarkable facilities for the Haj pilgrims.

Raza informed that around 26,786 pilgrims have commenced their journey. He encouraged the pilgrims to take this hike of faith to the next level, and be thankful for the arrangements made for their safe and comfortable travel.

In another public interest initiative, the Delhi Haj Committee ran a special camp for the pilgrims, providing guidance in physical fitness and yoga asanas to ensure that the pilgrims have the stamina to explore the new landscape without risk. The committee witnessed a significant rise in the number of female travelers unaccompanied by a mahram, out of which 39 travelers are from Delhi.

In total, over 22,000 travelers this year will be embarking on the pilgrimage from Delhi. Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government came to power, various initiatives have been taken to enhance the travelers’ experience such as the abolishment of the Haj subsidy and the implementation of using the said funds for the education of girl children. Encouraged by the Prime Minister, the VIP quota for Haj has also been scrapped.

The success of the Haj initiative is a great demonstration of the incredible cooperation between the Uttar Pradesh and Delhi governments, and with the efforts from PM Narendra Modi the program has been successful at making India’s presence in the financial and administrative capacity of the Haj a more meaningful one.

Odisha Chief Minister Adds Three New Cabinet Members

On Monday, Chief Minister of Odisha, Naveen Patnaik, conducted a minor reorganization of his Cabinet. Through this reshuffle, three new Ministers were inducted into the Cabinet – Bikram Keshari Arukha, Sudam Marndi, and Sarada Prasad Nayak. At a swearing-in ceremony at the State Convention Centre in Lok Seva Bhawan, all three ministers were administratively administered oath of office and secrecy by Governor Professor Ganeshi Lal in presence of the Chief Minister.

Several ministers, MPs, MLAs, and senior government officials were in attendance at the ceremony. All three newly-inducted ministers had served in various state cabinets before. Bikram Arukha was Chief Whip, a Speaker, and served as a Minister of Rural Development, Law, Forest, Environment, and Climate Change, Parliamentary Affairs, Information and Public Relations, Cooperation, and Public Enterprises. Sudam Marndi was Minister of State for Sports, Youth Services, Tribal Welfare, and Revenue and Disaster Management. Sarada Prasad Nayak has served as Minister of State for Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare, Housing and Urban Development, and Excise.

Making a vacancy of three ministers due to the resignations of B.K. Arukha and two others, and the murder of former Health Minister Naba Kishore Das this year, these inductions have managed to fill up that vacancy. Sources suggest that the Chief Minister may also assign changes in the portfolio of current ministers soon. However, a name for the next Speaker of the State Assembly has yet to be decided.

The previous reshuffle in Patnaik’s Cabinet was conducted in June 2022. There can be a maximum of twenty-two Cabinet Ministers in the Odisha Council of Ministers, including the Chief Minister.

Education Department in Gaya, Bihar Takes Action Against 5 Fake Teachers

The Education Department in Bihar’s Gaya district recently took action to terminate five teachers that had used forged documents during the recruitment process back in 2019-20. The five teachers identified are Pappu Mandal from Dashrath Nagar Primary School in Gahlor, Amar Kumar from Panditpur Sohri Mohra village, Amar Kumar from Rampur Panchayat Wazirganj, Bindu Paswan from Phulsar Panchayat, and Mukesh Kumar Yadav from the Ekamba Primary School in Fatehpur. Upon the District Education Officer’s recommendation, the department is initiating termination and sending a legal notice to the five teachers.

During the recruitment session of 2019-20, the Education Department hired numerous teachers on the grounds of their qualifications such as Matric, Intermediate, Graduation, and B-Ed or CTET/BTET marks. This was to make sure the recruitment was done through fair means. However, some applicants had found ways to falsify documents and marksheets, thus increasing their chances of recruitment. In order to curb such illegal activities, the department had issued a directive to the selected teachers to authenticate and verify their documents. As most of them did not, the five were caught and the reports were forwarded to the department for consideration.

The Education Department had issued the appointment letters in 2022 and now they have initiated the timely process for termination. This will not only maintain the integrity of the department but also ensure that the recruitment process remains ceaseless and fair.

On Monday, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik distributed portfolios of departments to three newly-inducted ministers: Bikram Keshari Arukha, Sudam Marndi and Sarada Prasad Nayak. Arukha was assigned to the Finance Department, Marndi to the School & Mass Education department while Nayak became the Minister for Labour & Employees’ State Insurance.

Arukha is a veteran politician from the Bhanjanagar Assembly constituency in Patnaik’s home district of Ganjam and was the Assembly Speaker until his resignation on May 12. Marndi, the MLA from Bangiriposi in Mayurbhanj district was previously in charge of Sports & Youth Services and ST & SC Development (tribal welfare) departments and minister for Revenue & Disaster Management from 2019-2022.

Meanwhile, Nayak – another three-time MLA for the Rourkela constituency – was brought back into the cabinet in order to reward his work as well as to counter the growing strength of the BJP in the Sundargarh district. Before his re-induction, he served as Minister of State for Food Supplies & Consumer Welfare, Housing & Urban Development and Excise during 2009-2012.

The inclusion of two ministers from Mayurbhanj district (Mandrini & Hembram) and Nayak from Sundargarh district into the Cabinet shows Naveen Patnaik’s commitment to fulfilling his party’s vision for Odisha, as well as his desire to create a more inclusive and diverse government. Patnaik’s strategy to build a strong and highly representative government should go a long way in helping Odisha find an effective balance between regional and national interests.
