Manual of Instructions For the Guidelines of Headquarters and Field Officers of the Education Department (In the Reorganised set-up)

Abstract

From Foreword: The Bhagwan Sahay Committee Report has been a land-mark in the educational history of J&K State. Besides recommending some far reaching changes in the educational structure of the State, the Committee also laid special stress upon the reorganisation and strengthening of the Education Department, both at the headquarters and in the field, so that it could be properly equipped for effective implementation of the new policies and programmes. Consequently, the State Government borrowed the services of Sh. J. D. Sharma, a senior I. A. S. Officer of the Haryana Government, who had previously been intimately connected with the reorganisation of the Education Department in the composite Punjab, to examine the problem in all its aspects and to advise the State Government suitably. Shri Sharma submitted a detailed report on the reorganisation of the Jammu and Kashmir Education Department which, after thorough consideration, was accepted by the State Government almost in toto.
