EDUCATION
Primary Education: The school infrastructure in terms of class-rooms, drinking water, and power supply in our deep interior tribal areas is pitifully inadequate. For example, the roof less schools in our Banspal block is a notoriously common sight. Besides, the problem of absentee teachers in almost all schools can not be solved without proper PRI empowerment to engage teachers of nearby villages.
Higher Education: Govt of Orissa specially targets the higher educational institutions, mainly high schools and colleges of the district for step motherly treatment. Posting to our district are being are known to be ‘Punishment Posting’ and therefore both in terms of quality and quantity of teachers, we are always at the receiving end. We rarely find a teacher who is not on a ‘Black Tenure’ in our district. There has to be a remedy to this.
Professional Education. Kendujhar has to become a natural hub of metallurgical industries if economic considerations overtake the political. Technical education for ‘Son of the Soil’ only will ensure some quality employment. In this respect, the district has been singularly unfortunate from ITI level to diploma, and degree level. Our only institution of higher learning, OSME (Degree Stream), now in its infancy, suffers from chronic deficiencies in almost every thing from classrooms to labs, to hostels and finally faculties.
Secretary, Industry, Mr Srinivas, with concurrence of Chief Minister and Industry Minister, has taken the momentous decision to shift the Degree Stream from its current location within the OSME campus to a new location near Judia Farm, and make it an institution of national importance This is a major task with specific time targets, whose progress is to be continuously monitored by the Local Executive Committee headed by the District Collector.
OSME is of great concern to our Forum, which would be separately handled by the above Local Executive Committee, where our forum is duly represented.
HEALTH
Medical Education. Kendujhar District continues to have the dubious distinction of “Highest Malarial Death” district in the nation. We are ashamed of our IMR, prime delivery death, our malnutrition, and finally our HIV incidence, which are the highest in the state. We have the additional shame that this happens in the richest district of the state, or may be the nation. We, therefore, support the cause of the current movement demanding a “Medical College” along with a nursing college and an Institute of Tropical medicine research at Kendujhargarh.
Sudden increase in the incidence of AIDS, and Lung Affliction are of concern to us.
