Imphal, November 24 2013:
Two persons holding fake academic certificates and a Government employee were included in setting up the school management committee of Thambal Leima Government Aided High School which is under ZEO Wangoi.
Speaking to media persons at their Sega Road office this evening, MSF vice-president Kh Serajuddin said that the fraudulence came to light in the course of an investigation conducted by MSF during the past fortnight.
The two persons who were inducted in the school management committee as local educationists used forged graduate certificates Graduate certificates.
Jenny Waikhom, a Government employee (SSA teacher) is also a member of the committee holding the same designation of local educationist.
The first accused holds a forged certificate which claimed that he passed BA from MB College in 1997 while the second claimed to have passed BSc from Mayai Lambi College in 1986 using a forged certificate, Serajuddin said.
But when MSF appealed to the concerned ZEO to look into this fraudulence, the ZEO advised the MSF volunteers to consult the local MLA and the Education Minister.
Such irresponsible attitude of the ZEO is highly condemnable, asserted the MSF vice-president.
The particular school was set up by a joint committee of three neighbouring localities but all the three local educationists mentioned above belong to Iramsiphai.
The earlier practice was induction of one representative from each of the three localities as local educationist.
All these malpractices reflect political influence of very mean manner upon the school management committee.
MSF demanded abolition of the existing school management committee and befitting action against the ZEO from the side of Education Department.
