Guardians alleged that most of the teachers of the schools, colleges and madrassahs are irregular in taking classes forcing the students to get admitted into coaching centres for their personal benefit.

They said the standard of education has deteriorated greatly as the teachers are not sincere in classroom teaching. They also said coaching centres that have been mushroomed in various parts of the district mostly lack quality teachings.

Taking the advantage of the situation prevailing in most of the educational institutions, owners of these coaching centres are making a windfall profit by admitting the students promising good results.

Visiting the city areas this correspondent found 15 coaching centres in dilapidated condition. Students of these coaching centres alleged that using the name of the eminent teachers of the renowned schools and colleges the authorities of these centres admitted them. But now they found that in most cases college students are teaching them.

They said these coaching centres announce various attractive offers to raise the number of students. The offers include free coaching of meritorious students who stood first in the annual examinations.

Guardians and local people urged the authorities to look into the matter and take necessary measures in this regard.
