                       1) Over the years, there has been much centralisation           
                       of power in education.

                      due recognition.
        
                      3)  Representation  of  teachers  union  in  Legislative 
                      Council  has  resulted in grouping, derelation  of  duty 
                      etc.  There  is  no justification  for  continuing  this 
                      representation.
