After the government came in for sharp criticism for circulation of the West Bengal College Service Commission Bill 2012 in the Assembly without the consent of Governor M K Narayanan,it has been decided that the amended bill will be placed in the Assembly in the next session in September.
A meeting in this regard was held with Education Minister Bratya Basu today. College Service Commission chairman Siddhatha Majumder was also present at the meeting.
If the act is placed in the next Assembly session,then we have to frame the rules quickly and accordingly,in the new rules transparency and clarity have been given first priority, Majumder said.
Officials of the higher education department added that in the earlier act of the West Bengal College Service Commission,colleges were divided into eight zones under each university except JU and BESU,and a teacher could apply to any college under one zone. The new bill does away with the zone-wise division and a lecturer can choose his or her college based on merit.
Basu said qualified part-time teachers who have qualified NET and SLET examination will be given extra marks.
