An online movement is taking a big shape in New
Delhi where some of public spirited colleagues and members of legal
fraternity have joined hands to fight against corruption existing in
the schools of Delhi.
The aim of this movement is to consolidate the
hardships faced by parents during seeking admission at schools in
Delhi. The education lobby of schools is too powerful that even our
government needs hard push to take legal action against them.
Our online movement is primarily requesting the
Prime Minister of India Dr. Manmohan Singh, Chief Minister of Delhi
Mrs. Sheila Dikshit and Hon’ble Delhi High Court and Hon’ble
Supreme Court of India to interfere and punish the guilty schools and
their management and the corrupt individuals.
To consolidate the work that we have already done in
this regard, we are providing the links of the following articles:
(1) Right To Education: A Successful Failure Of India
(2) Nursery Admissions: Schools In Delhi Are Openly Flouting Laws And Norms
(3) Nursery Admissions In Delhi-The Legalised Education Mafia
(5) Schools In Delhi That Do Follow And Do Not Follow Laws And Norms
Some of these articles are also available at here,
here
and here
and we would keep on updating the list from time to time.
We hope parents would come forward to share their
experience, good or bad, with us so that we can provide a holistic
picture to our government and courts.
We also expect our justice oriented courts to take
notice of the development happening in Delhi and take suo motu action
against the guilty schools and individuals.
We also request the Delhi High Court to consider the
averment and material made available in this article as part of the
ongoing public interest litigation (PIL) as the court has powers to
do so.
