Namoshi urges State govt. to release pending remuneration for PU exam evaluators
BJP MLC Shashil G. Namoshi has strongly criticised the delay in disbursing remuneration and allowances to evaluators who assessed answer scripts of the II PU examination even after four months of the completion of valuation work. In a statement issued here on Sunday, Mr. Namoshi said that many guest lecturers who are not on government payrolls travelled at their own expense to participate in the evaluation process. 'They spent anywhere between ₹10,000 and ₹15,000 from their pockets on travel and accommodation, despite already facing financial hardship. Yet, they fulfilled their academic responsibilities. The State government's apathy towards them is highly disappointing,' he said. He pointed out that the State government has released ₹78 crore to the Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) as early as May for the purpose of paying evaluators. 'Despite this, evaluators of the first, second and third exams have not received their remuneration,' he said. The Karnataka Pre-University College Lecturers Association earlier called for a boycott of the third examination answer script evaluation in protest against the non-payment of dues for evaluating the first and second exam papers. The boycott was withdrawn after KSEAB officials promised them that payments will be processed through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) within four weeks. 'Trusting the board's commitment, lecturers resumed the valuation process for the third exam. But those assurances have not been honoured and the evaluators continue to remain unpaid. This is not the first time; similar delays occurred in both 2023 and 2024,' Mr. Namoshi said. He questioned the board's repeated failure to make timely payments. 'What is the purpose behind this consistent negligence?' he asked. Mr. Namoshi demanded immediate release of the pending remuneration, highlighting the financial burden borne by evaluators who travelled from different parts of the State to Bengaluru, spending from their own pockets for food, accommodation and transportation.
