Sub: - RICHMOND GLOBAL SCHOOL expels 06 year old student & violation of the Right of Children to Free & Compulsory Education Act, 2009.
Dear Sir,
We have the honor to bring to your kind notice a case of violation of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009. Master YASH, a student of I-D of RICHMOND GLOBAL SCHOOL, Miyanwali Nagar, Paschim Vihar, Delhi-110087, is not being allowed to attend classes by the principal of the school.
Master Yash belongs to the Scheduled Caste (JATAV) & slum area of J.J. COLONY JAWALA PURI & has applied for fee concession on dated 01-04-2010, but the school has not responded to his application because of this, on 29-04-2010, 30-04-2010 & 10-05-2010, Teacher said to Yash Nigam, stand-up & out the class, school administration child sent back to home with driver . The parents took the child to the school but the principal was adamant to expel Yash
We understand that the said school being a Govt. aided school and is not entitled to charge fees to EWS student.
On 05/05/2010, I meet to Deputy Director of Education, Distt. West-B, Vikash Puri, New Delhi bringing to his notice the aforementioned facts and requesting him to do the needful on urgent basis. However, nothing has been done on the matter till date.
Thereafter, I told DCPCR Consultant Mr Narula (23862686) on phone the aforesaid facts.
You are well aware of the fact that the right to education is a fundamental right of every child under the Constitution. Article 21-A mandates the State to provide free & compulsory education to all children in the age group of 6-14 years. Moreover, the Delhi Schools Education Act, 1973 the Right of Children to Free & Compulsory Education Act, 2009 prohibit the school to expel or rusticate any student below the age of 14 years on any ground. Section-16 of the Right of Children to Free & Compulsory Education, 2009 is reproduced as under:-
No child admitted in a school shall be held back in any class or
expelled from school till the completion of elementary education.
Since Yash is only 06 years old, the school was totally unjustified to ignored his fee concession request. In fact Yash is also entitled to compensation from the school for violation of his fundamental right to education as guaranteed under articles 21 & 21-A of the Constitution of India.
It is, therefore, requested that EWS student Yash Nigam may kindly be grant fee concession immediately and allow him to pursue his education further as per the aforementioned Govt. Act the Right of Children to Free & Compulsory Education Act, 2009.
Thanking You
With Regards
