HARASSED GIRL STUDENT MOVES DELHI HC ON DENIAL OF ADMISSION BY DELHI GOVT SCHOOL

GIRL STUDENT MOVES DELHI H C ON DENIAL OF ADMISSION IN CLASS XI BY DELHI GOVT SCHOOL - HEARING ON MONDAY 18.07.2011 - The petitioner who belongs to OBC category has submitted in the petition that the Delhi Government has been publicly making tall claims expressing seriousness about the education of the girls but the present case exposes the Government that they are in fact and reality rather insensitive to the education of the girls.

The petitioner also submitted in the petition that despite the fact that the Delhi Education Minister writing to the School Principal to consider the case of the petitioner for admission in Class XI, the School Principal has shown total disrespect and disregard to the directives having been given by its higher-ups. This further exposes the failure of the system in regard to the education of the children of the National Capital City of India. It is really unfortunate that a girl child has to run from pillar to post fighting for her right to education as guaranteed to her by the Constitution of India. It is needless to say that the petitioner is not the only victim of this mal-practice and anti-child education system but there are thousands of other children also in Delhi who are similarly denied admission in government schools on one or the other false pretext.
