4. Further, to create awareness for the Scheme, it has also been decided to create awareness through wall painting across the country in all districts and Sub-Division Hospitals.

INCENTIVGE OF Rs.50/- PER PASS PORT DELIVERY TO POSTMAN 28 June 2012

Passport office to work on Saturday, Sunday to clear backlog

To ensure prompt delivery of passports, the postal department has been roped in.
NEW DELHI: The TOI campaign on the passport logjam has made the government put reforms on the fast track. In an unprecedented move, the ministry of external affairs on Thursday announced a 'Passport Mela' this weekend at many PSKs countrywide - the kendras will remain open on Saturday and Sunday and people can just walk in, without an appointment. This practice will continue till the entire backlog has been cleared.
In a special briefing to TOI, Raghavendra Shastry, adviser to external affairs minister S M Krishna, gave details of fresh measures that are expected to address the concerns raised by the people - and reported by this newspaper to help make the new passport application process smoother and transparent.
The ministry has also reviewed the online appointment process, and from Friday, an additional 30% slots are being released. This will take the number of daily slots in the capital from 1,650 to 2,050. Moreover, appointments will now be given for up to 30 days instead of 15. "This way, we believe we will be able to process 6 lakh applications in the country this year," said chief passport officer and joint secretary in MEA Muktesh Kumar Pardeshi.
"We have taken the suggestions given by TOI seriously and want people to know that we are working hard on them. There has been a huge backlog of applications due to the holiday rush, which is why we are having this passport mela. MEA is doing it for the first time in the country. This will help us smoothen the service in about six weeks from now," said Shastry.
"We will entertain walk-ins only on weekends. And people need not form queues early in the morning. They can come anytime after 10am," said Basant K Gupta, additional secretary, consular passport & visa division, MEA.
The ministry has reiterated its promise of revisiting its website. "There has been a lot of confusion over the passport application website. The older site, www.passport.gov.in is no longer functional but people have been visiting it. Therefore, we are going to redirect traffic from there to our functional portal, www.passportindia.gov.in. We are also going to prepare a fresh list of documents required for applying under various categories. There will be no ambiguity in %the process anymore," Gupta said.
Does this mean that there will be no more surprise demands for additional documents by PSKs? "Yes. TCS staff will no longer decide what documents are needed. Now, only government officials will check if all documents are in place and if anything else is required," said Gupta.
So far, the applicants who were turned back by PSKs for lack of documents had to try their luck again with %the online appointment system to book a slot. "This will not happen anymore. If there is any requirement of a document, an applicant will be given three days to return with the papers," Pardeshi said. 
To ensure prompt delivery of passports, the postal department has been roped in. "The postman will be given an incentive of Rs 50 per delivery. He will call up or send an SMS before coming to ensure that the passport is delivered to the person to whom it is issued," said Raghavendra Shastry, advisor to minister of external affairs.
He said that the system will be implemented across the country and S M Krishna will personally write to all state chief ministers to ensure implementation of the revised rules.
  
Apart from Delhi, passport melas will be held at the following places: RPO, Koramangla, and PSKs at Sai Arcade, Lalbagh, Mangalore and Hubli in Bangalore; RPO and PSKs at Nelson Manickam Road, Saligramam, and Tambaram in Chennai; RPO and PSKs at Begumpet, Ameerpet, Toli Chowki, Vijayawada, Tirupati and Nizamabad in Hyderabad; RPO and PSKs in Lucknow, Kanpur, Varanasi, and Gorakhpur; and passport office at 14 Mall Road in Amristar.

CBSE CCE (Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation) – Explained

Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) formulated CCE (Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation) method for its students from Class I to X in the year 2009 and started implementing the same in a phased manner. Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangethan, a Central Government Body which runs schools all over India under CBSE curriculum introduced from Class III to X from the academic session 2010-11.
Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation refers to a system of school based assessment that covers all aspects of student’s development.

It emphasizes two fold objectives.  Continuity in evaluation and assessment of broad based learning.
With a view to reduce examination pressure to students, the significant change made in the CCE is implementation of optional Board Examination for X std.  There will be only school conducted exam at the end of academic year for students of Senior Secondary Schools who are appearing for Class X and who do not wish to move out of the CBSE system. If a student studying in a SeniorSecondary School can prefer to attend Board Examination in respect of X std, if he wishes so. However, students who are studying in secondary schools in which no classes for XI and XII are conducted all the students must appear for Board Examination in respect of X std.
The following Table would elaborate CCE Pattern of education. (Click on the table for full view of table)





CBSE has also compiled frequently asked questions on CCE Scheme to clarify basic doubts raised by Students and Parents about the this scheme of education.  We have provided the same below
