Mangaluru, Jun 8: People including teachers form Kasargod district who are employed in Dakshina Kannada have been facing problems as they are not getting passes to travel to Karnataka on a daily basis from Dakshina Kannada district administration.

Dakshina Kannada district in-charge minister, Kota Srinivas Poojary, has now ordered for opening of three help desks at Talapady border with Kerala for issuing passes to Kannadigas settled in Kasargod on the spot. He also requested Kannadigas living in Kasargod to contact him over phone if they encounter problems again relating to this matter.

There was problem in issuing passes to people who need to move regularly between these two districts. There were allegations that Dakshina Kannada administration was following delaying tactics. Over 2,000 applications had been moved from people of Kasargod desirous of visiting Dakshina Kannada district regularly, and till Sunday, about 400 passes were issued. Sources said that many of the applications were kept on hold for want of records including Aadhar cards.

    It is good that this minister has taken this issue with more interest.

    A small request to the minister and the district administration. The Question paper to all the SSLC students is the same though they study in schools of their choice.

    Instead of bringing students residing outside Mangalore to the study school here in Mangalore, to write exams may be difficult considering the ongoing monsoon, pandemic, flash floods etc. So the only best choice left to the Government and students is to undertake exams from the nearest Examination centre of that student.
    Such students can be mapped at nearest examination centre. Their Answer papers can be photocopied at same examination centre and the District Education Officer's office, before sending it to the evaluation centre.
    By this way, even the students from Containment Zone can undertake exam from the nearest Examination centre in this academic year itself. Similarly the students who cannot write exams if the school is in contaminant zone can write exams at the nearest Exam centre of their choice. For Example, there are many students who come to Mangalore School from remote area(say above 60 kms) daily. If a containment area is in between these 2 places, such students may lose opportunity to appear in exams this year. To overcome all these hurdles, facilities can be easily made to such students to write exams at the nearest Examination centre.

    Hope the District Administration , State Government, Education Board consider this plea and work accordingly.
