According to news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), the education minister in review meeting said “The Directors of School Education of both the Jammu and Kashmir regions shall complete the process of rationalization before July-10 to do away with skewed PTR in urban and rural areas for judicious use of human resources and to overcome the deficiency of teaching staff in the schools and no Cluster Head shall transfer any staff at its own.” “Chief Education Officers of both divisions were directed to complete the process of engagement of Subject Specific Teachers and CRCs through fresh appointment,” reads the minutes of the meeting. About the floating of tenders for supplies, Project Director, Samagra Shiksha, J&K was directed to invite fresh tenders by following the proper and transparent procedure. “All procurement shall be done through open tendering henceforth and Project Director, Samagra Shiksha, J&K shall not sign any MoU in this regard with any agency.” Likewise about the timely completion of civil works, Project Director, Samagra Shiksha, J&K and both the Directors were directed to monitor the progress of civil works for their timely completion keeping in view the working season in Kashmir division and hilly areas of Jammu division.
