The Public----------------------?
                 Or
The System--------------------?

Children of poor people are ignored by the so called public school in 
Delhi despite of so many court orders to give them equal opportunity
in the field of education.The Government doesn’t dare to take quick
and necessary steps against them. Why? God knows.  
When most of the poor children are not getting proper education, they
become bound to look at their reverse side of their life and are doing
the negative aspects of their life as begging, theft and alcoholism.
 
Here is a Govt. order to implement High Court's Order of free ship in Public Schools as
Below------(as dated 27/04/2004 by the directorate of education, Delhi)

4. In case of a child who has studied in an un-recognized school, provision of Rule 141 (1) of the Delhi School Education Rules, 1973, would be applicable. 

5. No registration fee including charges of prospectus, if any, will be charged from any of the students belonging to the weaker sections. 

6. The admission to entry level, in respect of seats reserved for students belonging to the weaker sections, will be done by draw of lots in the presence of concerned parents, DDE or his nominee not below the rank of Vice-Principal of the government school. The system of draw of lots would be adopted only if registration exceeds more than the prescribed limit reserved for such students. 

7. For admission in a class beyond entry level, the admission test will be held in the first week of April and the selection of students will be done based on relative grading, in case the registration exceeds the prescribed limit. 

8. All schools will notify another date for inviting applications for admission, in case the registration in any class is below the prescribed limit. 

9. No school shall withdraw any exemption from the payment of fee etc. granted to any student belonging to the weaker sections of the society without prior approval of the Director. 

10. No school will refuse acceptance of the application for admission from any student belonging to the weaker sections of the society. 

11. There shall be no hike in the fees/funds/charges for other students on the plea of grant of freeship to the students belonging to the weaker sections of the society. 

12. Every unaided recognized private schools, shall in compliance of Rule 180 of the Delhi School Education Rules, 1973, submit returns and documents in the following prescribed Performa to the Director of Education by 31st day of July of each year:- 

(i) Budget estimates of receipts and payments of ensuring year. 
(ii) Final Accounts i.e. receipts and payment account, income and expenditure and balance sheet of the      preceding year(duly audited by the Chartered Accountant).

(vii) Statement showing the dates of disbursement of salaries. 

Non-compliance of the above order will be viewed very seriously and strict action besides withdrawal of recognition/stoppage of aid, shall be taken against the erring schools.

It is a matter of great regret that no Public school in Delhi is serious about it.
So we people should spread a awareness among  the people of Delhi and should
Try to let all to get the proper education.
