Bengaluru: The Principals, Teaching and Non-teaching faculty of Pre-University Colleges of the State have strongly opposed the Government’s reported move to merge Pre-University Exam Board with Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board.
The PU College Teaching and Non-teaching fraternity have formed a Joint Action Committee to oppose the Government’s proposed Board merger plan and the Committee held its first meeting at Legislator’s Home in the State capital on Sunday.
PU College Lecturers Association President A.H. Ningegowda said it is not right on the part of the Government to go for the merger without taking the teaching faculty into confidence. The Association will write to the Education Minister in this regard. The lecturers will launch an agitation if the Government does not drop the proposed merger, he said.
He further said that the Joint Action Committee has a good number of office-bearers, who chiefly include MLC and PU College Principals Association President K.T. Srikantegowda, Lecturers Association Hon. President Thimmaiah Purle and Non-teaching Faculty Association President Nandish.
