STATEMENTS OF OBJECTS AND REASONS
I
Act 16 of 1966.- At present, an Examination Unit as part of the
Department of Public Instruction is conducting about 67 Public Examination
including the S.S.L.C. Examination.
For the efficient conduct of the S.S.L.C. Examination and other Public
Examinations and for the timely declaration of result and expeditious
disposal of all matters relating to Public Examinations, it is felt expedient to
establish an independent Board with statutory powers.
Hence this Bill.
(Published in the Mysore Gazette (Extraordinary) Part IV-2A dated 27-1-
1966 as No 12 at page 22.)
II
Amending Act 9 of 1976.- Under explanation to sub-section (3) of
section 25 of Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board Act, 1966,
the year means the year commencing on first day of August. This does not
synchronise with the official Year of Government thus causing
inconvenience in compiling the accounts of the Karnataka Secondary
Education Examination Board.Secondary Education Examination

[1966: KAR. ACT 16
It is, therefore, proposed to adapt the year of the Board from 1st of April
of every year to end of March of subsequent year to synchronise with the
official year of Government. It is proposed to give effect to this change
immediately with a proviso i.e., in respect of the year 1975-76, the year shall
mean the period of eight months commencing on the first day of August
1975 and ending with the thirty-first day of March 1976.
Hence this Bill.
(Published in the Part IV-2A of Karnataka Gazette (Extraordinary) Part
IV-2A dated 31.03.1976 as No. 628.)
III
Amendment Act 19 of 1977.- As per sub-clauses (a) and (b) of clause
(A) of sub-section (4) of section 4 of the Karnataka Secondary Education
Examination Board, Act 1966, the Karnataka Secondary Education
Examination Board shall consist of, among others, two Divisional Deputy
Directors of Public Instruction and one District Educational Officer.
In pursuance of the re-organisation of the Department of Public
Instruction in 1970 every revenue district is headed by an officer of the rank
of a Deputy Director of Public Instruction instead of the District Education
Officer. Similarly, each division corresponding to the revenue division is
headed by Joint Director of Public Instruction instead of the Divisional
Deputy Directors of Public Instruction. In view of the changes made in
respect of the designation of the above referred two officers, it has become
necessary to make consequential amendments in the Act.
Hence the Bill.
