Sub:- Government school denied admission to students in pre-primary class

 

Dear Sir,

 

Please find enclosed hereto a complaint dated 05.04.2012 from Social Worker Sunita Chouhan (M-9718579728) stating that Delhi Government school, namely, Govt Sarvodyaya Boys/Girls School, Patpar Ganj, Delhi-110091 has denied admissions to as many as 15 students of 4+ years age in pre-primary class in the academic year 2012-13 on the alleged ground that school has no permission to admit more than 40 children. It is only a sample. The same thing is happening in all the Delhi Government Sarvodyaya Schools.

 

It is submitted that such denial of admission is not only unconstitutional, arbitrary, discriminatory, violative of Articles 14 (right to equality), 21 (right to life with dignity), 21-A (right to education) and Article 38 (right to social justice) of the Constitution of India but also in violation of Section 11 of Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009.

 

Kindly look into this matter on urgent basis and issue a circular to all the schools to not to deny admission to any child of 4+ years age in pre-primary class in the academic year 2012-13 on any ground whatsoever may be.

 

 

With regards,
