Computer
Teachers  of OAVS are  victims of conspiracy  of Odisha bureaucracy, a dangerous  trend 
in Odisha   
(Exposed under RTI)
RTI  exposed 
how  Odisha  bureaucracy  conspired 
to destroy  bright  career 
of educated  youths  of Odisha 
and made  them sufferer  for 
years  together  with low 
salary  and hard  work
In
2016,  Govt. of Odisha  launched 
new scheme Odisha  Adarsha
Vidyalay ( Odisha Model school)   for 
promotion  of excellence  in education 
upto secondary  and Higher
Secondary stage. The purpose is to create opportunities for students in
hinterland to receive education of high quality 
and to create vocational training 
to the students  along with  their normal 
course of studies so as to make them skilled  enough to create an environment  of self-sufficiency  and on the whole  acquainting 
with  the pace of life. No doubt,
it  will create  human capital for future  days with a positive effect  on the society  as well as on the economy  both 
in micro  and macro level. It 
is  a programme under Centrally
Sponsored  Plan ( CSP) where  as per 
the  principle  the 
Govt. of India  agree  reimbursement 
of 75% total expenditure  under
plan Budget. These  Model  Schools 
will be  CBSE  affiliated 
and replica  of Kendriya  Vidyalaya (KV). Accordingly, the State  Govt. followed staffing pattern  of KV , Each school  will have 12 no. of teaching  and 4 no. of non-teaching posts  so 
as  to fit in to the curriculum.
Model  Schools  with CBSE 
affiliation  started  from the 
year 2016-17. 
Computer Teachers- Worst
Sufferer  due   to  conspiracy  of Usha padhi, the then Secretary, Dept. of
School and Mass Education, Govt. of Odisha 
As model 
School  will be  replica 
of KV Schools, Each school 
will  have 12 no. of teaching  and 4 nos. of non-teaching  post. The 
Concurrence  of Finance
Department  was granted  for 
appointment of 12  teachers on
regular  basis  and one Junior Clerk-cum accountant  and 3 peons 
on contractual basis  to be outsources.
Like other teaching staff,  the post of
Computer  teacher  will be regular with  monthly salary  of Rs. 30163.00 ( Grade Pay 2200 ).  Due 
to  bureaucratic  conspiracy, 
the  Computer teachers  are 
reduced to  contractual  staff 
in 2015. Smt. Usha Padhi, the then Secretary, Dept. of School  and Mass education played  notorious 
role  by changing  concurrence 
of Finance  Dept for  regular  
Computer  teacher  to contractual  computer teacher. In  the meeting of Steering Committee of Model
schools  held on 23.2.15  under chairmanship  of Smt. Usha Padhi , it  was decided 
that  the post of  Computer 
teachers  will be on contractual
basis  with   remuneration 
of  Rs. 13500.00 instead  of regular 
post.  No reason  is cited  
in the  proceedings  to justify 
for appointment  of Computer  teachers 
on contractual basis. Though these 
computer  teachers  were 
selected  through process of
rigorous interview  which was  followed in the case  of interview of other  teaching staff, their post  was kept 
contractual. The concurrence  of
Finance  Dept. was simply  overruled 
by Smt. Usha Padhi which is 
extremely  arbitrariness and
extraneous. . RTI revealed  that  despite 
several  grievances  presented 
by Computer teachers  for  regularization of services as per decision of
Finance Dept., the  officers  of Dept. School and Mass Education have
kept  it in cold storage. Due to low
salary , the   highly qualifited  computer  teachers 
have left  the  post 
reducing  to  130 
against  sanctioned post  of 190 . Total no. of  60 Model 
Schools are  running  without 
computer  teachers.
