Ideally the income limit should be 8 lakhs as students who have benefited at primary and secondary levels proceed to avail higher education, they noted in a file related to the Delhi High Court case related to the income limit.
The Lieutenant Governor said that his idea was that the threshold boundary for admission to EWS seats in private schools should be in line with a limit of Rs 8 lakh in case of EWS admission in higher education institutions or at least ₹ 5 lakhs. Indicated in the High Court.
Under the Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009, 25% seats in private unadrected schools are reserved for students related to economically weak section (EWS).
The Lieutenant Governor mentioned that as per the minimum wage notified by the Delhi government, the annual income of skilled workers (₹ 21,917×12 = ₹ 2.63 lakh)) is more than the proposed limit of 2.5 lakhs.
He said that according to available data, about 11% of the seats reserved for EWS category in private schools have been vacant in Delhi in the last three academic sessions.
He said, “These unfilled seats clearly indicate policy failure on the part of the Delhi government by maintaining the threshold border with annual income unrealistic and restricted coverage,” he said.
He said that keeping in mind the fact that the threshold limit of 1 lakh annual income for the ‘children belonging to the children belonging to the weak section’ defined by the Delhi government does not properly reflect the economic difficulty faced by the families. , He said.
Even the Delhi High Court in its order on December 5, 2023 saw that the threshold boundary should be replaced with the dynamics of the economic structure of the society, he paid attention to his file.
Higher education institutions not only deprive the weak section of society by “unrendowly” the threshold limit of the entry in higher education institutions, but also violates the principle of equity in achieving the benefits of the law, but also violates the principle of equity, Saxena said.
“The Chief Minister is strongly advised to reappear the threshold limit for admission to private united recognized schools of Delhi in the interest of a large weak group of Delhi’s economically weaker sections and at least ₹ 5 to the income limit. Extend up to a million, “he said in his note.
He asked the government to take a stand on the court records as it has initiated contempt proceedings in the case.
