प्राधिकरण का मुख्य उद्देश्य निजी स्कूलों में फीस वृद्धि और सुविधाओं की कमी जैसी शिकायतों का निपटारा करना है। यह राज्य के 16501 सरकारी और 5396 निजी स्कूलों के लिए न्यूनतम मानक तय करेगा। प्राधिकरण स्कूलों में पढ़ाए जाने वाले विषयों, फीस और अन्य जरूरी जानकारी सार्वजनिक करेगा। इसमें निजी स्कूलों में शिक्षकों और कर्मचारियों के लिए वेतनमान भी तय किया जाएगा।

प्राधिकरण स्कूलों की मान्यता की शर्तें तय करेगा, उन्हें लागू करेगा और शिकायतों की जांच भी करेगा। यह एक अर्ध-न्यायिक आयोग होगा, जिसके पास स्कूल को दंडित करने या उसकी मान्यता रद्द करने का अधिकार होगा। प्राधिकरण एक स्वतंत्र इकाई होगी, जो बुनियादी मानदंडों, सुरक्षा, बुनियादी ढांचे और शिक्षकों की संख्या के लिए मानक तय करेगी। सरकारी और निजी स्कूलों को इन मानकों का पालन करना होगा। वित्त सचिव दिलीप जावलकर के मुताबिक प्राधिकरण के गठन को लेकर वित्त विभाग ने अपनी सलाह दे दी है। अब इस पर मुख्य सचिव की अध्यक्षता में बैठक होनी है.

ये होंगे प्राधिकरण के अध्यक्ष और सदस्य

राज्य स्कूल मानक प्राधिकरण में एक अध्यक्ष और विभिन्न क्षेत्रों के सदस्य शामिल होंगे। अध्यक्ष पद के लिए किसी शिक्षाविद्, सेवानिवृत्त वरिष्ठ अधिकारी या सेवानिवृत्त न्यायाधीश को नामित किया जाएगा। सदस्यों में शिक्षा विभाग के वरिष्ठ अधिकारी, जैसे स्कूल शिक्षा महानिदेशक और निदेशक एससीईआरटी शामिल होंगे। सीबीएसई और आईसीएसई से संबद्ध स्कूलों के प्राचार्य और गैर सरकारी संगठनों के प्रतिनिधि भी सदस्य होंगे।

राज्य विद्यालय मानक प्राधिकरण के गठन के लिए दो दिन पहले शासन में बैठक हुई थी। जिसमें वित्त विभाग ने कहा है कि इसका ड्राफ्ट नये सिरे से तैयार किया जाये. प्राधिकरण प्रभावी ढंग से काम कर सके, इसके लिए इसमें शिक्षा विभाग के अलावा अन्य विभागों को भी शामिल किया जाना चाहिए। – पदमेंद्र सकलानी, अपर शिक्षा निदेशक

London’s Natural History Museum has discovered a previously unknown species of coelacanth from fossil remains, approximately 150 years old (Macropoma gombesse). The new coelacanth is important because it helps bridge a huge evolutionary gap of about 50 million years for coelacanths, one of the world’s most recognized ‘living fossils’.‘According to the study published by the University of Portsmouth, the fossil was re-evaluated by University of Portsmouth paleontology alumnus Jack L. Norton did this while examining historical collections, which he had already been studying for several years. To explore the internal anatomy of this ancient coelacanth fossil without destroying it, researchers from the University of Portsmouth and the Natural History Museum used advanced X-ray computed tomography (XCT) technology to examine the internal structures of a coelacanth fossil in a way that had never been done before. This discovery emphasizes the enormous amount of scientific potential present in museum collections around the world, and provides further evidence of how modern technological innovations can change the way we look at ancient groups, and show us the complexities of evolutionary processes that have gone unnoticed right under our noses for the past century.

discovery of a New coelacanth species from a 150 year old fossil

As the University of Portsmouth noted, a specimen called Macropoma gombesse was discovered in the Gault Formation of southern England, which dates to the Lower Cretaceous. This fossil has spent over 150 years sitting in plain sight in museum collections, until recently it was discovered that it was a missing link in the Latimeridae family (i.e. modern-day coelacanths). Gombesa is the Comorian name for the modern coelacanth used by local fishermen, from which the name is derived.

Revolutionary discoveries with X-ray computed tomography

The sample was identified using a technique called X-ray computed tomography (XCT), which allows scientists to examine the sample without damaging it, create a 3-dimensional image of the sample, and see the sample’s internal features in high definition. The fossil was then compared directly to similar specimens from different species and found to have enough distinctive structural features to classify it as a new species. It also provided a sample of the evolutionary history of coelacanth.

Revealing internal anatomy with advanced imaging

The researchers used X-ray computed tomography (XCT) to re-analyze the fossil (non-destructive method) through a three-dimensional visualization of the material and internal structures of the specimen; Thus they can perform comparative analysis on this specimen with known lineages to verify any unique physical characteristics of this specimen in relation to other fossils; These results indicate that this fossil represents a new coelacanth species and helps understand its evolutionary history.
