Students’ body protests against ‘flawed’ Right to Education Bill

Ranjan Pandey,Delhi state secretary of AISA,said,“The RTE in its present form has several fundamental,structural problems that deprive it of the potential to provide a universal right to education.”

Anil Sadgopal,noted educationist,said: “The Bill proposes 25 per cent seat reservation for poor students in private schools. This quota will be filled by providing vouchers to such students,but these vouchers will only amount to the fees paid for admission in a government school.”
