### Steps to reproduce the bug

!pip install datasets

from datasets import load_dataset
    
dataset = load_dataset('knowledgator/events_classification_biotech') 

### Expected behavior

no ModuleNotFoundError 

### Environment info

google colab

tasks was removed in v3: #6999 

I also don't see why TextClassification is imported, since it's not used after. So the fix is simple: delete this line.

I opened https://huggingface.co/datasets/knowledgator/events_classification_biotech/discussions/7 to remove the line, hopefully the dataset owner will merge it soon
