APPENDIX H :
MEMORANDUM ON ITEM 10 :
TO CONSIDER THE NECESSITY TO
 INTRODUCE AN INSPECTORATE IN
 HINDI.
 

(Government of Kerala)

At present there are no special Inspectors to supervise teaching of Hindi. The District Educational Officers and Assistant Educational Officers now doing inspection work in primary and secondary schools, are not having any special qualification for inspection of Hindi teaching. Very often inspection of Hindi teaching is neglected since most of the inspecting officers may not possess knowledge of Hindi. It is proposed that one senior Inspector for Hindi in the scale of Rs. 250-400 may be appointed under each Regional Deputy Director for inspection of Hindi teaching in secondary schools and three junior Inspectors for Hindi in the scale of Rs. 150-250 may be appointed-one for each Revenue District under the Regional Deputy Director-for conducting inspection of Hindi teaching in primary schools (Upper primary). Thus there may be three senior Inspectors for inspection of Hindi teaching in secondary schools and nine junior Inspectors for inspection of Hindi teaching in upper primary schools.
