Authorities have launched an inquiry into a school after 63 students were admitted under the Right to Education (RTE) Act. The school, whose name has not been disclosed, is being scrutinized for allegedly not adhering to RTE guidelines during the admission process.
The investigation follows complaints suggesting that the school may have violated rules, which grant children from economically weaker sections the right to free and compulsory education. According to officials, the probe aims to determine if the admissions were conducted transparently and in accordance with the prescribed norms.
The RTE Act mandates that private schools reserve 25% of their seats for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. However, concerns have emerged about the selection process at the school in question. Education authorities are reviewing documentation and interviewing those involved in the admissions to ensure compliance with the law.
Local residents and parents have expressed mixed reactions to the news, with some supporting the investigation while others question its timing. The outcome of the inquiry could have significant implications for the school and its future admission processes.
As the investigation continues, authorities have assured that strict action will be taken if any irregularities are found, ensuring that the principles of the RTE Act are upheld.
