Bengaluru, Jun 19: The Karnataka government has been advised by its Educational Advisor to cancel holidays observed in educational institutions on the occasion of various Jayantis (birth annivesaries).
Advisor to Karnataka government on Education, Professor MR Doreswamy, has recommended cancellation of holidays on Jayanti and celebrate the day with more meaningful programmes remembering the great personalities.
The state government has declared public holidays on Valmiki Jayanti, Basava Jayanti, Kanaka Jayanti, Mahavir Jayanti, Ambedkar Jayanti and Gandhi Jayanti.
On Thursday, Doreswamy submitted a report containing seven key suggestions including cancelling holidays, to Deputy Chief Minister CN Aswath Narayan, who holds higher education portfolio.
Doreswamy in his report suggested to hold thematic workshops, lectures, conferences and other such activities to celebrate the life and works of the great personalities, instead of declaring holidays.
"It would not only educate our youth about the significance of the great personalities to our culture and society and also reinvents the tradition of paying tributes to their contributions to our civil society,'' he said.
Dr Narayan said that the decision on cancelling holidays on Jayanti's has to be taken by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa.
Moreover, to bring education back on track during the present COVID-19 pandemic situation, Doreswamy made a few suggestions to complete exams of final semester engineering and graduate students. He also said that it was a challenge for the education sector to overcome the pandemic crisis and structure the next academic year 2021-22.
He also advised implementation of a mentoring system in all higher education institutions in Karnataka and empowering specially-abled students.

This is a false allegation by this BJP Leader. BJP has no issue now a days and nominated certtain people to give illogic, false and anti national statement. Whatever this local bjp leader telling is nothing but lie. He wants to create trouble in karnataka based on guidance received from his party. Police should do investigatin and in case whatever being told by this local bjp leader is wrong he should be arrested under goonda act. At the same time, in case the Moulvi has said anything wrong apprpriated action should be taken on him. He should respect our nation and should not compare it with Pakistan which is quite instable and people are fighting there themselves. We cant compare Pakistan with India. There is a huge difference between India and pakistan in many issues. India is far better than Pakistan.
Hell with your fake desh bhakti.
BJP leaders know that there are many people who will believe what they say and believe in them without VERIFYING and hate others. Guys GOD has given Us intellect . till when will we guys will be Fooled by the haters of humanity to FOOL us to hate eachother. We need to Wake up and use our god given intellect.. No Muslims want to create a pakistan in india.This concept is only with the Hate mongers who play with the minds of those who are not thinking on their own about the society which was living peacefully by both hindus and muslims since long time.
