Our ' Glorious Leader' continues to take Telangana on the path of progress... by making students answer questions about him in their Examinations
Hyderabad:
In a blatant bid to politicize education, students of Class 8 taking the quarterly school exams in Medak, the home district of chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, were asked to appreciate his role in the formation of Telangana.
The students, needless to say , failed to answer the question, which read: “Explain the role of our CM K Chandrasekhar Rao in the formation of Telangana.“
This question was
clubbed with a question on appreciating “the role of Gandhiji in Indian National Movement.“ which analysts said was an
apparent move to equate Chandrasekhar Rao with Mahatma Gandhi.
Another bizarre question which the SSC Class 8 students failed to answer was providing a solution to the burgeoning power crisis. “
What advise do you suggest to overcome the power crisis in our state? “ was the question, which left both invigilators and students pulling their hair.
The
questions for 10 marks each appeared in th
e Social Studies paper exams held last month. There was a spattering of similar questions on Telangana which left students bewildered, for instance seeking answer to
“measures on developing the new state of Telangana into a golden state of Telangana.“
As students had never read nor were taught the topic in the classroom, a teacher said only two out of 175 students in his school
attempted to answer the out-of-context questions.“How can you expect the students to answer the questions given out of syllabus? More alarmingly , the move appears to be an attempt to politicize education in favour of the ruling party ,“ said the teacher from a government high school,
who did not wish to be named, fearing retribution. Another objective question for one mark asked
students to name the assembly constituency of KCR.
That was not all, in the 100 marks question paper,
37 marks were entirely on KCR and Telangana politics, which almost all students failed to answer, the teacher said.
While
Telangana district education authorities said they were pressured to include such questions, social activists were up in arms against the government for pushing the TRS agenda in education. “The TRS is already propagating the message, saying KCR is the ‘
Father of Telangana’, and even calling him Mahatma who brought freedom for Telangana. While we can term it a political ploy, how can you explain the steps taken to distort question papers in favour of a political party?” asked Balakrishna Raju, a social activist form Medak. “It is nothing but an attempt to indoctrinate students in TRS ideology,” he added. Even question papers of Classes 9 and 10 contained questions related to KCR and his party.
The Class 10 paper carried 10.5 marks on him and the 9th standard paper carried 1.5 marks directly related to Chandrasekhar Rao as political leader. An objective type question in Class 10 asked wards to identify the party symbol of the TRS. It contained questions about Telangana’s Formation Day, education minister G Jagadish Reddy and on finance minister Etela Rajender’s role.
Teachers are worried over the fact that most of the Class 8 students failed in the Social Studies paper as the questions were out of context, but department officials have asked them
not to be liberal while evaluating the answer scripts.
District education officer (DEO) A Rajeswar Rao, however, found nothing wrong in the questions. “T
he students are expected to be strong in terms of general knowledge, and it is nothing wrong in asking them to answer the questions related to the chief minister of the state,” he told TOI.
Qs on KCR stumps students of Class 8
@Sahasranama @Indrani
Would like to ask
@Mike_Brando and
@Skull and Bones :- Does Mamta ask such questions in West Bengal??
God Save Telangana if this is the quality of our Leadership.
