others as maximum as posible. So this type of incidents are quite common.

school
It is pity to tell you that, very low baground family students and the
dust or scrap left by private inistitutes are being admitted in
government schools. health, education and transport must be in the
public sector only.

In a shocking incident, teachers at the government high school at
Durgigudi locality here forced Godawari M., a physically challenged
girl, to take here transfer certificate (TC) and appear for the 10th
standard examination as an external candidate as she had an "average"
academic record.
Along with Godawari, five other 10th standard students in the school
whom the teachers considered "poor" in studies have been issued
transfer certificates and they have been asked to appear for SSLC exam
as external candidates.
Parents, members of School Development Management Committee, and
representatives of civil society organisations had staged a protest on
the school premises against this.
Murali, Godawari's father, had lodged a complaint with Minister of
State for Primary and Secondary Education Kimmane Ratnakar on
Wednesday, and the latter has directed a probe into it.
Deputy Director of Public Instruction B.C. Basavarajappa told The
Hindu that, prima facie , it seemed that with the objective to secure
100 per cent results for the school, the teachers had asked the
students with average academic record to take the TC and appear for
the exam as external candidates, which is against the law.
A panel, comprising senior officials of the department, had been
formed to probe into the incident. All the six students for whom TCs
were issued would be enrolled back to the school, he said.
Mr. Murali told this correspondent that even after the issue of TC,
the students were attending classes but their names were to be deleted
from the register. They were to appear for the exam as external
candidates.
As a major chunk of parents who send their wards to this school are
either non-literate or have limited education, they were ignorant of
this practice.
"The teachers have behaved in an inhuman manner," said Mr. Murali.
Gopalakrishna, the local councillor, said that when efforts were being
made to bring back the out-of school children to the purview of formal
education system through Sarva Shikshana Abhiyan and other schemes,
the teachers here have acted in a contrary manner.
Anantha, a social activist who was part of the protest, said that the
teachers here feared that poor results would result in their transfer.
