Don’t de-club the clubbed schools on your own: Authorities to CEOs

Riyaz Bhat

Srinagar, Nov 21 (KNO): Authorities on Tuesday asked Chief Education Officers of (CEOs) of Jammu and Kashmir not to de-club the clubbed schools by their own.

Project Director, Samagra Shiksha J&K, Deep Raj in a communique said this while issuing the instructions for de-clubbing the clubbed institutions in the respective districts of the CEOs as per the feasibility and norms governing the field.

“It is to mention here that the Chief Education officers of some of the districts of UT have been requesting this office to grant them permission for de-clubbing the clubbed institutions shown in UDISE+ 2023-24 in their respective area of their jurisdictions,” Raj said.

The Project Director also said that the clubbing of the schools has been done as per the lists furnished by their offices after seeking necessary approval from the Administrative Department.

“All the Chief Education Officers are therefore enjoined upon not to make any de-clubbing of the clubbed schools at their own level which may invite action against such defaulting officers,” it reads.

The communique however said that in any such request of extreme exigency with full justification and background thereof may kindly be routed through Director School Education Jammu and Kashmir, so, that same is placed before Administrative Department for a decision on the matter as per merit of the case.

In the previous year, the School Education Department has said that it will merge nearly 800 government schools with low student enrollment.

It has also said that the merging of such schools is to be done in the backdrop of the disproportionate Teacher Pupil Ratio (TPR).

The government had also said that the students of those schools that will be merged and will fall out of the catchment area would be given transportation charges of Rs 500 each month.

Pertinently, the School Education Department in the previous fiscal has said that it had identified more than 1200 such government schools that were having low enrollment of students—(KNO)

Demand Surges for Solar Panels and Inverters Amid Worsening Power Crisis in Kashmir

Demand for solar panels, inverters shoots up as power crisis deepens in Kashmir

Srinagar, Nov 21 (KNO): Demand for solar panels and inverters has soared in Kashmir, which is currently reeling with a lack of adequate electricity supply.

Kashmir, for more than a month, is witnessing a severe power crisis, which has hit both domestic as well as commercial consumers.

As such the demand for alternative sources, which include solar panel-driven inverters, has shot up by more than 40 percent.

Imtiyaz Ahmad Khan, a dealer of inverters and solar panel brand, told news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) that the demand for these alternative power sources has gone up for the last two months.

“This year power crisis has escalated, which has forced people to buy and use alternative sources of electricity. We have witnessed a good demand for the last two months and on an average daily we sell more than 60 solar panel-driven invertors” he said.

Khan said that various types of solar panels are available in the market, which help people to get a smooth flow of electricity during peak hours.

“There are monocrystalline solar panels available in the market, which use solar energy even during cloudy or foggy weather. The demand for this particular solar panel is very much,” he said.

Another deal Basharat Ahmad Sofi said other solar energy-driven equipment including solar water heaters and cookers are in good demand in Kashmir.

“Solar lanterns, heaters and cookers also sell in good numbers. Winter in Kashmir is extreme and solar energy-driven equipment is best suited when there are no or fewer hours of electricity,” he said.

Earlier this year, the government announced 65 percent government subsidy on rooftop solar panels and 80 percent subsidy on solar-powered pumps.

Officials at the Jammu and Kashmir Energy Development Agency said they have installed 8.5 MW rooftop solar power plants so far.

“A solar rooftop generates 25-30 units of energy daily. So, we have been promoting the installation and use of solar rooftop in Jammu and Kashmir because we have an immense potential to tap this source of energy,” said Muzaffar Ahmad Malik Deputy Chief Executive Office JAKEDA—(KNO)
