Shillong, June 9: The Synjuk Ka Bri Hynniewtrep today has written letter to the Chief Minister of Meghalaya Mr Conrad k Sangma, expressing Concern over the deteriorating quality and standard of education in the State.
In the letter have mention that the ‘Synjuk Ki Rangbah Kur’ Khasi-Jaiñtia (a conglomeration of clan elders) is deeply disappointed with the recent information on the status of education in the state as published in the media where Meghalaya has figured in the bottom most list among other State & UTs in the country.
With profound sorrow concerning the plight of our younger generation in the future, the Synjuk Ki Rangbah Kur, Khasi-Jaiñtia, would like the Chief Minister to seriously look into the entire problem and system that lead to this fallout.
As a matter fact we are of the view that those functionaries sitting at the helm of affairs controlling and directing the entire functioning of system in the state should be ashamed of themselves because of this type of picture they have contributed during their time in the education system in whatever capacity they may have been involved.
The citizens of this State should not be taken for granted and they are not the silent spectators of these kind of mismanagement affecting the future of our children. The government should do something to address the matter with a strong suggestion to thoroughly introspect the problem therein and by bringing in new and innovative development into the system.
The Education Department seems to have running without clear objectives and goals and the issue as it appears required wide consultation from all stakeholders as well as proper research should be taken up immediately to understand the grass root reality of this matter.
The Synjuk Ki Rangbah Kur, therefore, urges upon the Government and the Honourable Chief Minister in particular to earnestly consider this matter of priority and to kindly respond to the urgent need of the hour, said Mr Herman Nongrum President and Mr. Aristotle Lyngdoh General Secretary in the press statement sent today the media.
