10% reservation for economically weaker section in MBBS; Controversy over govt order
Thiruvananthapuram: The government order allowing 10 per cent reservation for economically weaker section in general category for medical admission has come under scanner. The order issued on Tuesday also made the reservation norms applicable to self-financing colleges in the state. Eight self-financing colleges in the state have been brought under this. But those self-financing colleges with minority status havebeen excluded from it.
There also exists confusion over who will bear the fees.
The government is of the stance that the existing share of seats should not be reduced in any of the categories as part of implementing the new reservation system. Hence it demands increasing 25 per cent seats in medical colleges.
The last date for submitting application to Medical Council of India for increasing the number of seats was Tuesday. Concerned principals have submitted the applications.
With 25 per cent increase in seats, government hopes to implement the 10 per cent EWS reservation.
CBSE-ICSE students struggle to get Malayalam textbooks; Black markets thrive in state
Kochi: The students of CBSE-ICSE syllabus have to pay a whopping price to get Malayalam textbooks. The sales of 'Kerala Padavali' and 'Malayalam Adisthana Padavali' books for various standards are thriving in black market.
Parents of CBSE-ICSE students are struggling to get the books as the price is fixed depending on the demand.As teaching Malayalam has been made compulsory in schools in Kerala, all schools are following 'Kerala Padavali' and 'Malayalam Adisthana Padavali' textbooks.
However, Malayalam textbooks are presently distributed in government and aided schools only.The CBSE-ICSE students are unable to obtain the Malayalam textbooks of the classes from first to XII standard.
Exploiting this situation, a parallel sales team has been formed in the state. They sell monochrome Photostat copies of the colourful original textbooks. Some of them even print the books in low quality papers from Sivakasi. A few of the CBSE schools print the books in the school's name also.
The major attraction of the Malayalam textbooks is the colourful pictures. But the CBSE students get only the books printed in monochrome. The book is provided free of cost upto eighth standard in government schools.
There are no proper guidelines for Malayalam teaching till class 8 in CBSE schools. Each school follows different methods and books.Presently, the number of students in CBSE-ICSE schools are higher than that of the government-aided schools. Malayalam textbook is not available for them.
The request for the chief minister's intervention in this issue was put forward in 2017 itself.The matter was raised in a delegate meeting held in Kochi and the chief minister had agreed to take action.
Later, All Kerala Publishers and Book Sellers Association secretary Jayachandran CICC sent a letter to the chief minister in this regard. But no further action was taken except for handing over the letter to the concerned department.

They are grateful for Kozhikode-based Centre for Research and Education for Social Transformation for mentoring them. The centre endeavours to create a just, equitable and caring society through empowerment of the marginalised and underprivileged, based on the values of humanism, equality and social justice, Its avowed mission is to help the marginalised and the underprivileged gain confidence, build competence and achieve excellence in all spheres of human endeavor, for their social, cultural and economic development through education, training, research, and consulting.
But for the training imparted by CREST, all three confessed that they would have gone for routine graduation insome discipline, lacking career focus. The“Earn while you Learn”Susandhi fellowship gives them the confidence to complete their higher education.

V Pranitha, from Trithala MRHSS, hails from the Muthuvan community. Since her family is against the idea of education outside the state, she is undecided about accepting the fellowship. Students, who score a minimum of 70 per cent are eligible for the fellowship. The syllabus begins with a 4-month personality development scheme, followed by an 8-month technical training. Then, students will enroll in a 3-year industrial economics course in K L Tech University, Hubli.
During this period, students are eligible for accommodation and food allowance of Rs. 10,000. Tuition fees are included in the fellowship. After the course, placement in good jobs is also promised. Students are chosen on the basis of an entrance examination, group discussion and a personal interview. Due to low awareness of the course among Keralites, enrollment from the state is low. {https://www.vidyaposhak.ngo/vidya-poshak-abdul-kalam-susandhi-fellowship-program/}.
The Susandhi fellows were in town as part of a batch of 30 students appearing for various UG programs conducted by Indira Gandhi National Tribal University,Amarkantak,Madhya Pradesh{http://www.igntu.ac.in/}. The entrance examination centre is in neighbouring Kakkavayal.
