Unattainable dream

After the spoilsport for about 10 years ruining Kerala Collegiate Education, the Government of Kerala has decided to sanction 1,599 posts of teachers in aided colleges in the State. All guest faculties working in various colleges now can search for other income building business like lottery selling or serving in petrol bunks. The aided college managements in Kerala are enthralled at the chunk of donation they likely to get from these 1599 appointments. Assuming Rs 50 lakh for single post private college managements in Kerala are likely to get about 800 crore rupees.

Is there any management in Kerala who appoint a candidate without a price? Is there any interview board constituted for these appointments do their duty without guilt of conscience? Has our Government machinery any mechanism to control the wide-spread corruption in these colleges? For poor and intelligent candidates with NET and Ph D, teaching in private aided colleges, where salary is paid from State exchequer, is a never realizable dream.
