Schools to hold a fresh draw of lots based on ‘95 points’ system-Indian Express | 28 Feb 2014

Schools to hold a fresh draw of lots based on ‘95 points’ system

Written by Shikha Sharma | New Delhi | February 28, 2014 1:16 am

Fresh draw of lots will now be conducted in all schools.

The Department of Education (DoE) has amended the nursery admission guidelines by reworking the point allocation system and released a new admission schedule for this academic session.
This comes in the wake of the department receiving numerous complaints about parents misusing the interstate transfer points.

With the deletion of interstate transfer points (5 points), admission to schools will now take place on a 95 points system — “the points determined only as per neighbourhood, sibling studying in school and parent alumni of school criteria”,  a notification by the DoE stated.

Schools will also have to modify the first list of selected candidates, by vacating seats given to interstate transfer applicants. Children already selected based on neighbourhood, sibling and alumni criteria will retain their seats. Those children with 70 points who were selected in the draw of lots will also retain their seats.

“If a school has already conducted draw of lots for applicants with 70 points, the draw shall remain valid for selected/confirmed candidates only. Fresh draw of lots will be held for remaining applicants, who have 70 points, including wait-listed applicants and those applicants who were securing 75 points because of the interstate transfer points category case,” states the order.

Fresh draw of lots will now be conducted in all schools.
In the previous system, of a total of 100 points, 70 are given to children living in the neighbourhood of the school, 20 if the applicant’s sibling studies in the same school and five points each if either parent is an alumnus and if it is an interstate transfer case.

Only those having 75 points out of 100 were considered for the draw of lots while those having 90 points were automatically admitted.

Instead of February 28, the first list of selected candidates, including those belonging to the economically weaker section and disadvantaged group, has been extended to March 15.
The date of display of second list, if any, will be March 20. The date of display of subsequent lists , if any will be from March 21 to March 31, 2014. The admission process will close on March 31.

“Parents have really appreciated the changes made. But parents of those children, who were genuine interstate transfer cases, are now contemplating legal recourse,” Sumit Vohra, founder of admissionsnursery.com, a portal representing the parent community in Delhi, said.

Who will make the cut

  • Children already selected based on neighbourhood, sibling and alumni criteria will retain their seats
  •  Those children with 70 points who were selected in the draw of lots will also retain their seats
  • The date of display of second list, if any, will be  March 20, 2014
  •  The date of display of subsequent lists , if any will be from March 21 to March 31
  • The admission process will close on March 31

@Sakshi, the DOE circular does not say anything about the girls quota draw. The draw was held for all applicants scoring 70 and above, so I guess there should be no re-draw for girl's quota. Can you please confirm?

what will happen to girl child already selected in 70 points in Girl Child Lottery?

I am a genuine transfer case. if redraw mandatory , redraw should be for all. now our probability of getting has become even lower than before. great injustice.

NO ALUMNNI points. schools are not BANK LOCKERS to be passed down from one generation to another. parents pls unite. lets fight it out.

Agreed Charu, Why unlimited  % of reservation to Alumini should be given what is the logic behind it. It is totally unjustified. Also EWS reservation is very much pron to misuse as the person not filing the returns are rewarded with EWS qouta by obtaining fake income certificate. These reservation are eating the available seats in nursery.

Sibling and alumni points need to be remove and selection through lot draw. If we don't stop sibling and alumni points system then same situation will be continue next year. Stop this nonsence  RAJA KA BETA RAJA.

Thanks for all your efforts but what DOE guidelines have circulated is utter nonsense. Why the hell draw will happen only for those who couldn't get selected under 70 pointers list. All have right to equality then redraw should happen for all with 70 points.

Obviously it is complete injustice to left out cancelled genuine transfer cases as now there will be draw for lesser number of seats. Why this injustice in a country where there is right to equality for all.

Why the hell Alumni points have been retained. And what is this fuss about genuine and non genuine transfer cases. How on earth child of a transferred parent is more suitable to get admission than a permanent resident of Delhi.

Also, what about girls who were earlier selected on transfer basis. Shouldn't they get a chance to be selected in girls quota? [Please note that in many schools girls quota draw was conducted after filling general seats].

I complete  agree with Pragnya panda and lalit thingom there should be a complete redraw for general category for all seats of 70 marks not only for the seats vacated by them .

What about the 70 pointers in the waiting list? my son is in the waiting list of 70 pointers as all the seats are secured by 75+ in Salwan Public school Mayur Vihar.

What will happen for the Minority Schools. Will they release the first list today or that again will be on 15th March now.

Thanks in Advance

We have applied in only few schools due to the earlier mentioned transfer points criteria. Now at last moment we cannot fill more forms and we are also not being given fair chance.
Where as the earlier 70 pointers are getting DOUBLE chance for DoLs.

Either genuine transfer cases should be allowed to retain their seats or fresh redraw of all seats.
