Under RTE (Right to Education Act), 285 private schools out of 700 in the district have not provided information about the list of free admissions for the academic year 2014-15 on the RTE web-portal.

Out of 285 schools, 85 are secondary education schools and 200 are elementary schools. The Education Dept had ordered the private schools to list online before 31^st December 2014.

Director of Elementary Education has shown resentment towards District’s DEO and ordered all the schools to list down online by 15^th January. Director said that all the BEOs are ordered to incur regular monitoring and finish the due work.

According to sources, Education Dept has claimed that it has carried out physical verification regarding the free admissions in the schools and also ordered them to report online.
