2606 private schools of Haryana have not given the details of vacant seats to the education department under Right to Education (RTE), while the education department is constantly asking for information about vacant seats from these schools. But now the department has decided to take action against private schools not giving information about vacant seats. Concrete steps will be taken soon after completing all the formalities regarding this.
However, the department had earlier issued notices to 3134 private schools for not providing information. But now the department has given time till May 23 to provide information on the demand of private schools.
The special thing is that after sending children to these schools, the government will also reimburse the money as per the rules of RTE. It is also believed that these are the schools which do not have recognition. Therefore, if this situation remains, the government can also get these schools closed.
10 percent schools did not respond
Earlier the department had issued notices to private schools through the District Elementary Education Officer. It is written in it that under RTE, the recognized private schools for the children of disadvantaged and economically weaker sections had repeatedly opened the Sonte online portal for darshan. But the schools did not show the seats on the portal.
The Director General of Basic Education Department took cognizance of the matter and ordered to issue notice to the said private schools. But not even 10 percent of those schools have responded.
So many schools of these districts did not give information
The 2606 private schools of the state that have not given information about vacant seats include 99 from Ambala, 101 from Bhiwani, 31 from Charkhi Dadri, 290 from Faridabad, 102 from Fatehabad, 216 from Gurugram, 197 from Hisar, 85 from Jhajjar, 65 from Jind, 88 from Kaithal, 213 from Karnal, 111 from Kurukshetra, 107 from Mahendragarh, 69 from Nuh Mewat, 120 from Palwal, 42 from Panchkula, 172 from Panipat, 93 from Rewari, 86 from Rohtak, 79 from Sirsa, 117 from Sonipat and 123 private schools from Yamunanagar.
