engagement if vacancies were available else‐where, pending arrival of
regular employees.
3. The State Government has considered this matter and has
decided the following course of action on the subject:‐
(i) There will be a complete ban on engagement of fresh guest

engage Guest Teacher, will display the vacancy on the notice
board of the school and inform the Panchayat through a
written communication to the Sarpanch of the village, and
invite application from the displaced Guest Teacher
available in that village for that category. If such a displaced
guest teacher belonging to the same village is available, then
he/she could be engaged. If more than one displaced Guest
Teacher from the same village is available, then the one
having higher merit may be considered for engaging.
(b) When no displaced Guest Teacher from the same village is
available, the Head of the Institution will send intimation of
the vacancy to the DEO/DEEO office along with justification
for engaging a Guest teacher in the interest of studies of
students.
 25

(c) DEO/DEEO of the respective districts will compile such

information received from schools Block‐wise every month
and display it on the notice board on first working day of the
following month. Displaced guest teachers may obtain the
information from notice board in the offices of DEO/DEEO
and may submit their request to the DEO/DEEO for
engagement as guest teacher for a particular school/schools.
(d) Against the vacancies displayed on the notice board,
displaced guest teachers may be recommended by the
DEO/DEEO for the engagement to the head of the institution
as per needs/BEO in the following manner;
(i) First Priority:
First priority will be accorded to those guest teachers
who were displaced from the same Block in which the
vacancy has occurred. In case there are more than one
applicant, then the one with more experience will be
recommended;
(ii) Second Priority:
If no displaced guest teacher from the same Block is
available, then a displaced guest teacher from other blocks
of the same district having longest experience as guest
teacher out of the available applicants will be
recommended;
(iii) Third Priority:
If no displaced guest teacher from the same district is
available, then a displaced guest teacher from any where in
the State having longest experience as guest teacher out of
the available applicants will be recommended.
4. Only those guest teachers, who were engaged within the terms of
guest teachers policy before the imposition of ban on dated 17.11.2007
would be considered for adjustment under this policy. Further those
guest teachers, who were engaged after dated 17.11.2007 with the
explicit approval of the Director concerned, they will also be considered.
5. DEO/DEEOs will compile and enlist all the applications of each
category recommended upto 10th every month and display the same on
the office notice board by 15th day of the same month. DEO/DEEOs will
issue to the eligible applicants a letter of recommendation for
engagement by the relevant school head/BEO. The displaced guest
teacher who has been issued a recommendation letter will report to the
relevant institution within 2 working days.
 26

6. In case the displaced Guest Teacher fails to report within the

stipulated time, then the Head of the School shall treat it as vacancy and
inform the DEO/DEEO for inclusion in the list of vacancies for next
month. The Guest Teacher who fails to join will be debarred from being
considered for engagement in future.

Government as well as decision of Courts including Hon’ble Supreme
Court, the Guest Teachers have no right for re‐engagement or for their
continuation as such, as they were engaged at the local level without
issuing a general advertisement and without preparing a general merit
list. . As such, the guest teachers have no right for re‐engagement or for
continuation of their services in any manner. This adjustment policy is
being issued as a matter of expediency as a stop gap arrangement till the
regularly recruited persons becomes available. It is also made clear that

guest faculty and no State wide list for adjustment will be kept. It is up to
the guest faculty to look for suitable vacancies in the districts of choice

EXPECTED GAINS FROM SEMESTERISATION

With the introduction of the Semester System, everybody with a stake
in education would stand to gain. The main accruing advantages to different
interested parties are summarized below:‐
A. STUDENTS
i. Students will be required to prepare for smaller course content.
ii. The examination stress will, therefore, get considerably reduced as also the
fear.
iii. Luck and chance will play a lesser role. The students merit will become the
chief determinant of his/her result.
iv. Examinations will become student‐friendly.
v. A student can avail himself of 2 additional chances in any subsequent semester
in order to attain qualifying grades in as many subjects as he/she has not been
able to qualify.
vi. In case a student is unable to reach the qualifying level in any one paper out of
four in 4 semesters in any subject, but his/her overall grade‐point‐level comes
to the desired level prescribed by the Board, he/she will be taken to have
cleared the examination in that subject.
vii. If a student qualifies in the external examination and does not make the grade
at the internal examinations, he/she will have a right of appeal to the Secretary
of the Board.
viii. In case a student is desirous of improving upon his/her grade. She/he will be
able to avail of one more chance for doing so in every semester course. There is
no limit to the number of courses one can improve in.
ix. The student will be better prepared for the selection/admission tests they may
desire to appear for in future.
x. While studying a shorter course for the semester examinations, he/she will be
able to study more deeply, which in turn will prepare him/her better for life.
B. TEACHERS
i. With 10% weightage age in GPA allocated to continuous and comprehensive
School‐based Evaluation, the provision will empower the teachers.
ii. Semesterization will yield self satisfaction to teacher.
iii. The system will offer better opportunities for diagnosing the strengths and
weaknesses of the students and enable the development of more realistic
remedial programmes for helping students to improve their levels of
attainment/performance.
iv. The ethos and discipline of the school will also improve.
v. With the necessity of studying all the year round, the abilities of the students
and the result of the schools will also improve.
vi. The teachers will also be able to take innovative initiatives for enriching the
teaching learning process.
 46

vii. As semesterisation requires continuity of work by the teachers, the

displacement of teachers will be minimal.
C. PARENTS
The desire of the parents for realizing their aspirations through their children
will stand substantially realized with:‐
i. Students studying all the year round and adding to their basic
competencies.
ii. Students realizing all round development of personality for squarely
meeting unfamiliar situations in life.
iii. Students better prepared for taking examinations and thereby fairing
better in competitive examinations for admission/selection.
D. THE HEAD OF SCHOOLS
i. Heads of schools will became the principal catalysts for change.
ii. They will have the opportunity to monitor the entire process;
iii. They will play a key role in implementing the changed pattern of
education and examination.
iv. They will oversee the total education in the school geared to the change;
v. They will be the key to the success of the programme.
vi. The status of schools will get elevated.
vii. All this will enhance the prestige of the Head.
viii. In the context of the above, the Head of the School too would experience
professional satisfaction in heralding the process of change as a pioneer
and a pace‐setter.
Haryana has pioneered in introducing this internationally acclaimed
and academically advanced system at school level. As the Examination system
has changed i.e. two exams are conducted in a year instead of one annual exam,
this system has been appreciated by the students and the parents.

LITERACY PROGRAMMES
A BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF LITERACY PROGRAMME IN HARYANA
A society without literacy loses its meaning and is an obstacle in the way of
development. Effective use of human resources is impossible in such a society.
Therefore, literacy is an inseparable part of human life. But it is an irony that we still
have to struggle to achieve literacy for the entire population. Today struggle against
non‐literacy is inevitable. There should be constant efforts till we reach our target.
Attempts are manifold in this direction. Our major steps include universalization of
primary education, non‐formal education and literacy programmes. The declaration
of education as a fundamental right has given an impetus to these efforts.
At the dawn of the 20th century India had a literacy rate of 5.4% which has
grown to 65.38% at the end of the century. The major achievement came only after
independence. Before the launching of the 1st Five Year Plan, the literacy rate was a
mere 18.33%.
Keeping the objective of rapid growth in view the large country that we are
had to be restructured in terms of geo‐political situation after independence. A
number of states were carved out of the existing bigger ones on linguistic basis to
cater to the needs of entire populace through comparatively smaller territories.
Haryana in fact is one such state whose inception took place in 1966.
In the Census taken after 5 years of inception of our State i.e. in 1971, the
literacy rate was 25.71% and women's literacy rate only 10.32%. Many attempts
have been made in Haryana State in this regard and are going on till today.
According to the Census of 2001 the literacy rate in Haryana is 67.91% which is
marginally higher than the National average of 65.38. This could be possible due to
the priority given to the universalization of education and adult education.
Especially during the last decade i.e. from 1991 to 2001 increase in literacy rate is
12.1 percentage points.
The National Literacy Mission, launched by Rajiv Gandhi, the then Prime
Minister of India, on 5.5.1988 has also played an important role in this remarkable
increase of 12.1 percent. The NLM adopted a campaign approach, the success of
which rests on the mobilization of society and on securing people’s participation.
The term literacy was enlarged to include “Functional” element and the new
definition of literacy adopted by NLM embraced all aspects of life like reading
writing and numeric skills, empowerment, self reliance, skill development and
imbibing social values.
The first breakthrough came in Ernakulam district (Kerala). This was
followed by district Panipat in Haryana where the literacy campaign was initiated in
1991 and the district got the honour of being the first district to be adopted for total
literacy in North India.
 48

The real impact of the campaigns in Haryana is best reflected in the census
results of 2001 which coincided with the completion of over a decade of
implementation of the literacy campaigns under the NLM. The most significant rise
has been in the literacy rates of the marginalized groups like scheduled castes and
women. The literacy of scheduled castes has recorded an increase of 16.23
percentage points from 39.28% in 1991 to 55.45% in 2001. Similarly the literacy
rate of women has recorded an increase of 15.2 percentage points from 40.5% in
1991 to 55.7% in 2001.
There is also narrowing of the gender gap in literacy. Gender gap in literacy,
which was 28.63% in 1991, was reduced to 22.8% in 2001. This rise in female
literacy rate has been coupled with other significant offshoots that have a noticeable
impact on our social life. All these achievements are only due to the campaigns for
literacy in Haryana. Even now, we have miles to go for literacy of women among the
scheduled castes as their literacy rate is alarmingly low at 34.82%.

*where the rural female literacy rate is less than 50%, it is is being
considered as Low Rural Female Literacy district.
The table shows that there are nine districts namely Gurgaon, Jind, Hisar,
Sirsa, Kaithal, Bhiwani, Karnal, Fatehabad and Mewat (data of Mewat not available
 49

but on the basis of general information) where literacy rate is lower than the State
average. There are another eight districts, i.e., Bhiwani, Faridabad, Fatehabad,
Gurgaon, Hisar, Jind, Kaithal, Sirsa and Mewat (data of Mewat not available but on
the basis of general information) which come under the category of below 50
percent literacy rate among rural women. On the other hand we have seen that once
opportunity is provided, women come out in large numbers for literacy whatever
struggle they have to put up.
Involvement of marginalized sections provides broader meaning to the
campaign. Due to their participation there are offshoots of the programme that are
significant on social grounds. To take an account of the efforts made during the
literacy campaigns we have to go through the strengths including offshoots and
weaknesses of the efforts made in the name of literacy campaigns.
STRENGTHS OF LITERACAY CAMPAIGNS INCLUDING OFFSHOOTS
Literacy campaign is meant to impart functional literacy but it also
disseminates a ‘basket’ of other socially relevant messages, such as enrolment and
retention of children in schools, immunization, propagation of small family norms,
promotion of maternity and childcare, women’s equality and empowerment, peace
and communal harmony. A remarkable rise in the enrolment of children in schools
has been registered in Haryana between the decades 1990‐91 to 2000‐2001 i.e.
12,35,000. The important factor that contributes to this rise is the participation of
adult learners in the literacy programme which made them more conscious about
the education of their children. This is truer in the case of scheduled caste
population whose children come to the Government schools.
Women, poor and backward segments of society, and young boys and girls
have participated in literacy campaigns with great enthusiasm. These campaigns for
the first time have provided an opportunity to the rural youth to engage in dialogue
and discussion. Workshops held as a part of the literacy campaigns played the role of
a catalyst in this regard. A spirit of voluntarism was ignited in these youths and they
were inspired to take literacy classes over a long period of time on a sustained basis.
A large number of Kala Jathas (cultural troupes) were active at various times
in the district of Rohtak, Sirsa, Jind, Hisar, Karnal and Panipat. In Rohtak alone, 52
Kala Jathas were active, 18 of them being exclusively of girls. The artists developed a
keen sense of awareness regarding social issues and in the process they were also
able to hone their artistic skills. This was made possible because these artists got the
benefit of participating in intensive theatre workshops in which the socio‐cultural
context of the literacy campaign as also the artistic aspect was dealt with in detail.
The literacy campaign gave rise to discussion, especially among women, of
social issues like dowry and education of girls. Enthused by the spirit of the literacy
campaign, women took the initiative on several issues like the problems of drinking,
eve‐teasing, child marriage, domestic violence against women etc. The neo‐literates
are imbibed with thought‐provoking experiences of life. They are, moreover,
engaged in socially productive tasks.
It is to be noted that in the villages of Haryana, a tendency towards collective
effort and initiative is present, though not perhaps tapped for constructive purposes
in recent times.

This is the era of Continuing Education in which offshoots, strengths and
limitations of literacy programme can be addressed within the new paradigm of
Continuing Education programme that is getting an institutional structure.
Continuing education envisages evolving a learning society that further implies a
process of lifelong learning. It contains the prospects of engaging the people in such
a learning process that leads to the involvement of common masses in the task of
development of society and the nation. An environment conducive to the
propagation of Continuing Education could be evolved by sensitizing large sections
of society to engage themselves in the teaching‐learning process. The programme
provides effective tools of books, literature, reading material, various trainings,
learning by doing programmes, discussions, deliberations, delivering lectures, songs
and plays. All these tools are in fact significant for preparing roads to the minds and
hearts of the people so that they may be sensitized and indulged towards the socio‐
economic and cultural advancement of our society.
Thus the programme of Continuing Education paves the way to create a more
humane environment that is a pre‐requisite for the involvement of large masses in
the process of development of society. In this social churning, segments of people
may directly get involved in the ongoing activities of developments while other
sections could be motivated to think for a more rational and more humane mode of
development. Thus Continuing Education has a direct, indirect and in fact a complex
linkage with the development of society as a whole.
