Mohammed Younus/ Hyderabad: The Telangana government is contemplating doing away with weightage marks criteria for deciding the EAMCET ranking and is waiting for the response of the Andhra Pradesh Board of Intermediate. The issue would be discussed in the forthcoming meeting between Education ministers of both States on October 27 and a decision might come out of it.
The Telangana government is intending to bring some changes in the Intermediate education for the convenience of students of the State. It wants to discuss these issues with AP government since the present BIE is common. The government is trying hard to get the board bifurcated so that it could implement its own agenda. The bifurcation proposal would be discussed in the meeting between education ministers of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The government is contemplating several changes in the examination pattern and other things for quite some time and also released a GO declaring separation of Board recently.
Several meetings at Secretary-level have already discussed various issues pertaining to intermediate education and actual bifurcation of the board. On the other hand there were also discussions on separate examination for the students of both the State.AP government has been arguing for common annual examination for the students of Intermediate of both states as EAMCET would follow it immediately. Moreover it gives 25 percent weightage to the marks secured in intermediate in deciding rank of EAMCET.
A top level official in Telangana government said that if needed Telangana government may do away with the weightage in EAMCET. If this to be believed, the decision should have to be taken jointly by both the governments. Both the governments, after several meetings at secretary level, have decided to convene a joint meeting of education ministers on October 27 to sort out several issues pertaining to board of intermediate and its bifurcation procedure.
This meeting will also discuss the fate of other institutions included in the 10th schedule of A P Reorganization Act 2013. The ministers would try to sort out the issues of Dravidian University, Mahila University, Potti Sriramulu Telugu University and other standalone institutions in the state. The main agenda of the meeting would be to decide on the actual bifurcation of the intermediate board and modalities for conducting the examinations as very little time left for the examinations. The board officials are the job of preparing for examinations in time and on the other hand state government is mulling for some changes post examination.
