BADIPILUSTONDI IN JANMABHOOMI - MAA VOORU PROGRAMME AND GUIDELINES

Introduction:
Government of Andhra Pradesh has launched “Badi Pilustondi” Programme as one of its campaign programme. Education for All is one of the important themes of the Social Empowerment Mission. Govt. of A.P having fully realised the importance of education, in order to improve all social and economic indicators is giving top priority to education sector. Primary Education, SchoolEducation are the foundation for the improvement of overall education scenario in the state.

I. Objectives:
“Badi Pilustondi” campaign is launched with the following objectives.

1. All children in the age group of 6-14 years shall be enrolled in the schools.There shall be no dropouts/ never enrolled children in any village.
2. No child shall be employed as child labour.
3. School should have all the high quality infrastructure. The minimum requirement like., number of class rooms, toilets,drinking water etc. as defined in the RTE Act shall be fulfilled in all schools.
4. Quality education shall be imparted in all schools.
5. The schools shall also impart about the environmental issues like., Tree Plantation, Water Harvesting etc., to child.
6. Children shall be provided with excellent quality mid-day-meal. Mid-day- meal shall be provided in adequate quantity as per norms.
7. The mid-day-meals shall be prepared in hygienic environment and the hot mid-day-meal shall be served to all children.
8. All children shall be provided with entitlement like., Text Books, Uniformsas per the time schedule.
9. All children shall be imparted with the quality education and it will be ensured by regular monitoring and continuous evaluation of the children learning outcomes and regulation of teachers.
10. All Adults who are illiterates shall be made literates in the coming four years to achieve 100% literacy. While children below 14 years will be encouraged to enrol in schools, dropouts above 14 years can avail Open School system.
11. There shall be transparency in implementation of all the programmes and in incurring expenditure at schools.

II. Strategy:
      The above objectives of “Badi Pilustondi” shall be achieved through community participation, parents’ involvement, effective teacher participation and also regular monitoring by the education department. The knowledge of NGOs, CBOs and Corporates will also be utilized in improving the infrastructure as well as quality of education. Even the resources under SSA and RMSA shall be utilized fully and effectively and in transparent manner. It is observed that though schools are provided grants under SSA and RMSA, many schools as on today do not have television with ROT facilities though number of lessons are being telecasted through MANA TV. Timely utilization of funds will ensure better grants from Govt. of India.

      Success lies in creating awareness among parents about importance of education highlighting the benefits being provided by the Govt. to take this education to their door step. Awareness shall also be created about the mid-day-meal programme. It is established that many of the children are not utilizing the mid-day-meal as
food is neither palatable nor being served hot. If the local community and School Management Committees are made active and if they supervise more effectively, mid-day-meal will be availed by all the children.

      The supervisory officers in Education Department like., MEOs, Dy.EOs, DEOs are need to visit schools on regular basis to ensure that academic calendar is followed and syllabus is completed as per time line. The performance of the children in various aspects should be reviewed and monitored. It is revealed in many
reports like., ACER that the education standards are coming down and learning levels of the children in Govt. Schools is far from satisfaction. This quality of education and learning levels of the children can be improved if teachers play their role effectively. The involvement of all other departmental officers as a part of
“Janmabhoomi-Maa vooru” is expected to motivate parents to send children to school, especially girl children.

III. Expected Outcomes:

1.All Out of School Children in the village shall be enrolled.
2.RSTCs/ NRSTCs shall be opened wherever required to impart bridge courses to Out of School Children.
3.All toilets sanctioned by the District Collector under RWS, SSA and RMSA shall be completed before 31 st October 2014.

6.Funds were released for providing furniture in Upper Primary Schools and High Schools under SSA/ RMSA for the year 2014-15. District Collectors shall ensure providing proper furniture in schools immediately.
7.There shall be an improvement in the number of children taking mid-day-meals. Atleast 10% increase shall be achieved.
8.100% Aadhar seeding of children shall be ensured so that there will be transparency in enrolment, teacher deployment and proper utilization of funds for free text books and uniforms.
9.The Academic Instructors approved by the Government in view of the teacher vacancies shall be deployed by the time of school reopening after Dasara holidays.

These grants are being passed on to the schools and should be utilized effectively in maintaining toilets and drinking water source in good condition.
11.Schools shall make effective utilization of school grants and maintenance grants released under SSA and RMSA. This will ensure clean premises, white washing of all schools, good ambiance and availability of Teaching Learning Equipment in every school.
12.The District Collectors shall enlist required infrastructure based on U-DISE survey being taken up from October 2014 and action plan has to be prepared in every district to cover all the infrastructure gaps under SSA and RMSA in Annual Work Plan of financialyear 2015-16.

inevitability of bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh and consequent fall out shrinking opportunities to the educated un-employee youth in the Andhra Pradesh. The opportunities that existed before the bifurcation of combined AP were lost after the bifurcation of the State. Hence the proposal to enhance the age limit from 34 years to 40 years became urgent need of the hour.  Accordingly, the following adhoc rule is
issued raising the upper age limit of 34 years prescribed in Rule 12 of the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996, by six years for the recruitments.

3. The following notification will be published in the Andhra Pradesh Gazette.

O R D E R:

1. In continuation of the Curriculum Reforms undertaken under National Curriculum Frame Work -2005 and Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, and with an objective to facilitate for a makeshift in the teaching learning process and to improve transactions of new technologies, and to transform the ways of learning to be comprehensive, holistic and dynamic, Government have brought in the Examination Reforms vide G.O. Ms. No. 17, School Education (PE.Prog.II) Dept. dated 14.05.2014  for classes IX and X from the academic year 2014-15 onwards. However, certain quantitative and qualitative measures were contemplated under the reforms such as reducing the number of papers from 11 to 9, giving 80% of the weightage to the Subject papers, and 20% of weightage to the Internal Assessment of the Student, Training for teachers on the new patterns of teaching and text books, summative and formating assessment etc., all of which require extensive capacity building at the level of all High Schools in the State of Andhra Pradesh but the said training programmes were not held due to various administrative reasons.

2. The Commissioner & Director of School Education, A.P. Hyderabad in Letters 2nd, 7th & 8th cited has stated, among other things, that  the concept of Internal Evaluation has not drilled into the minds of either Government Teachers or Private
Teachers. She has observed that there is a large number of Government as well as Private Schools in the State and introduction of the new procedure without taking adequate preparatory steps to orient the Teachers and Students to the new system will have serious ramifications on the future of the students. She has  also  explained the experience that the Sarva Siksha Abhiyan have introduced the concept of Comprehensive and Continuation Evaluation (CCE) since two years upto VIII class but in spite of continuous trainings being given, the teachers are not yet fully equipped with that system. The G.O. Ms. No. 17, School Education (PE.Prog.II) Dept. dated 14.05.2014 has reduced the Language papers whereas the basic objective of School Education is to impart languages in the early years of student life. As such reducing two papers of the Languages to one paper and giving lot of weightage to the Subjects is not desirable at School level. The Commissioner & Director of School Education, A.P. Hyderabad has also opined that it is not possible to monitor the Internal Evaluation of large number of Government and Private Schools in the State and the   new  system  would eventually result into reduction of academic standards. The Commissioner & Director of School Education, A.P. Hyderabad has, therefore, requested the Government to rescind/defer the G.O. Ms. No. 17, dt: 14.05.2014 and requested to accord permission to proceed with the following actions: 

1. The present X class examination will be based on new text books only.

2. There will be 11 papers with same marks like earlier practice.

3. There is no weightage for internal valuation.

4. The pass marks for Hindi will also be continued as 20 which is the existing practice.

5. Constitution of an Expert Committee with the Directors, RMSA, Government Examinations and SCERT to study and propose
modifications to the reforms mentioned in the G.O. Ms. No. 17, dated 14.05.2014.

1. In the G.O. 1st read above, Government have  prescribed a  Pro-forma for Income Declaration Form to be filled by the students who intend to apply for issue of Income Certificates ( of parents) for the purpose of filing applications for scholarships/Fee  reimbursement. Further in the G.O. 2nd read above, certain instructions were issued regarding issue of Income Certificates by Revenue authorities for grant of Scholarships / Fee Reimbursement to students.

In the reference 3rd read above, the Special Chief Secretary and Chief Commissioner of Land Administration, A.P, Hyderabad, has  reported that, as on 4.8.2012, 24.10 lakhs  requests are received in Mee-Seva centres 7.53 lakhs requests are disposed Across-The –Counter (ATC). Out of remaining 16.57 lakhs requests, 13.47 lakhs are approved within time frame. 77,505 are rejected, 2.05 lakhs requests are under process within time frame.  27,551 requests crossed prescribed time frame. Out of 27,551 requests which crossed time frame. 14,725 are for Income Certificates.  As per G.O 2
nd read above, the Tahsildars are the Competent Authorities for issue of Income Certificates and as of now, only Tahsidlars  can sign the Income Certificates digitally in Mee-seva portal.  Due to this,  even though the required enquiry is completed by Village Revenue Officers (VROs) and Mandal Revenue Inspectors (MRIs), Tahsildars are unable to digitally sign all enquired requests within the time frame as they have only one digital certificate per Mandal. Regarding issue of second “Digital Certificate”, National Informatics Centre, (NIC) authorities have informed that as per existing Electronic Laws only one digital certificate can be issued to an individual officer.  Many Joint Collectors requested that if second  digital certificate cannot be issued to Tahsildars, Deputy Tahsildars working in Tahsil offices at least be authorized as “Competent Authorities”  for issue of  Income Certificates in addition to Tasildars so that all “Deputy Tahsildars” can be issued “Digital Certificates” and the problem of Income Certificates crossing time frame can be resolved.

4. Government after careful examination of the proposal, hereby  decide to  Authorize the “Deputy  Tahsildars” in Tahsil offices also as “Competent Authorities” for issue of Income
Certificates in addition to Tahsildars.

5. The Special Chief Secretary & Chief Commissioner of Land Administration, AP, Hyderabad and all the District Collectors   shall take further necessary action accordingly in the matter.
