Delhi govt pulls up schools for not making EWS admission data public
The Delhi government has pulled up schools in the national capital for not making public data about vacant seats and admissions made under Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category.
New Delhi: The Delhi government has pulled up schools in the national capital for not making public data about vacant seats and admissions made under Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category.
In a communication to schools, the Directorate of Education said, "Schools were directed to display on notice board information about total number of seats in all classes, number of seats under EWS quota, seats available, total applications received under EWS quota and information about till when the EWS quota applications will be received and date by which the admissions will be given."
"It has been observed that schools are not doing the same and are ordered to comply with the directive or face action," it said.
While those belonging to families with annual income less than Rs 1 lakh can seek admission under the EWS category, the disadvantaged group (DG) category applicants include -- the SC, ST, OBC, non-creamy layer, physically challenged, orphan and transgender, and all children living with or affected by HIV.
A total of 25 per cent seats in all schools are supposed to be reserved for the two categories.
