The action comes after the parents of the students studying met Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during Janta Samvad at the CM's residence.
The Delhi government has served a de-recognition notice to private schools in the Capital after it was found flouting the rules by overcharging fee from the parents. The action comes after the parents of the students studying met Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal during Janta Samvad at the CM's residence.
A complaint was lodged before the CM against Victor Public School, Maujpur, saying that the school was not providing free uniform, books and other stationeries to the students belonging to the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) category. The CM took a strong note of the violation by the school and then directed the Education Department to take strict measures against the school.
"Victor Public School, Maujpur was directed by the department to provide books, uniform etc as per norms but it defied the lawful directions and did not comply. In view of the above, the School has now been served with a de-recognition notice by the Department of Education for violating norms related to the EWS/DG category," said a statement from the government.
Complaints were also received against two other schools, Mahavir Senior Model School, Sangam Park, RP Bagh and Queen Mary's Public School, Model Town III, that they have arbitrarily hiked the school fee. "Taking action against the two private schools, the education department has directed them to immediately roll back the fee hike in the school and refund the increased fee to the parents/guardians of the students with immediate effect, otherwise the government will take action," said a senior Delhi government official.
