Drawing the attention of the State Government, Tangkhul Katamnao Saklong (TKS) has pointed out that the Zonal Education Office, Ukhrul has been without a head for quite sometimes after ZEO Th Yaima, who joined as ZEO in the last week of March, was transferred barely two months later in the second week of May to his home District Bishnupur in the second week of May.
In a statement jointly signed by its President Yangmi Khapai and Education Secretary Ashung, TKS observed that in the absence of ZEO, one junior officer who is assigned as DDO is acting as the present ZEO of Ukhrul.
"Just wondering how the education office will execute work effectively when two ZEOs were transferred in just 8 months time.
The ZEO by virtue is the district's education chief is the District Program Officer (DPO) of Sarva Shiksha Abhyan (SSA).
However, non-availability of official DPO is also found to be seriously impinging the progress of SSA", the TKS statement said, while urging the government to immediately appoint a qualified ZEO according to the norms of the government most preferably from Ukhrul district.
