Ghaziabad: Almost 100 parents staged a protest on Thursday outside the playschool in Indirapuram area of Ghaziabad where an employee had allegedly molested prenursery girls two days ago. The ensuing scuffle between the parents and the school management abated after the latter agreed to meet some of the demands of the protesters. The demands were related to increased security of students, participation of parents in the management of the school and greater accountability of all employees.
The management has also promised to arrange a meeting between the parents and the school’s chairperson, who has been absent during the entire episode.
The CEO of the school was present during the protest and assured irate parents that steps will soon be taken to increase security. “Most of the demands made by the parents are reasonable and things we were planning to do. These include installation of CCTV cameras, formation of a parent-teachers association for different classes and the presence of a female teacher in all school buses,” said the CEO.
However, parents said their primary concern was to meet the chairperson who has not met any of them till now and addressed the molestation issue. According to the management, the chairperson is currently abroad and will be returning for the school’s annual day on November 20. “The school will remain closed till a meeting is held between the chairperson and a delegation of parents,” said a parent whose two-and-half-year-old daughter studies in the playschool.
Parents have also demanded that if anyone wishes to withdraw their children from the school after this incident, then their full fees should be refunded. “The CCTV cameras will be installed in the school premises before Diwali,” added the school’s CEO.
The Ghaziabad police said investigations were on and the prime accused was being questioned. He will be produced in court on Wednesday. A manhunt has also been lodged against the two school management employees against whom an FIR was lodged by the parents for threatening them to withdraw the case, said a officer.

THE SCHOOL ASSURED THAT NO STAFF, OTHER THAN FEMALE EMPLOYEES, WILL BE ABLE TO GET AN ENTRY INSIDE THE CAMPUS
GHAZIABAD: Two days after the alleged molestation of two threeyear-olds at a playschool at Indirapuram, parents called off their protest after the school authorities on Thursday agreed to their demands and also promised to upgrade security and safety measures at the school.
On Thursday morning, scores of agitated parents sat on a dharna at Mother’s Pride school around 9pm. The protest continued till the CEO of the school arrived and faced the parents on issues such as safety and security of children. During an open debate between the CEO GS Matharoo and the parents, various questions were raised. The CEO later signed a letter, promising to address parents’ concerns at the earliest.
Various demands put forward by the parents included: installation of CCTV-cameras in the entire campus within a week, maintenance and routine helps will not carry mobiles on school campus, entire hierarchy of working staff to be verified by police officials, formation of parent-teacher association to hold regular meetings and also to resolve grievances.
The authorities assured that no staff, other than female employees, will be able to get an entry inside the school campus. Also, a female teacher will be deputed inside the school bus and will leave the bus only after ensuring that the last child is dropped.
“We have agreed to all demands of the parents. An inquiry has been ordered against other management employees over the incident,” Matharoo said. He claimed that the parent of the victim had given an application to withdraw the case lodged on Wednesday at Indirapuram police station against the management employees.
However, station-officer GN Yadav said that no such application was received and once an FIR is lodged, investigations would be carried out. He added that police were constantly searching for persons searching named in the FIR.
The school management clarified that the two employees who were terminated on Tuesday were sacked due to non-reporting of the incident to their senior management. The school will now reopen on November 17.

Shocking that they don't have CCTV camera in the school premises. Why are you charging high fees from the parents?

Shame on this school. This school is just money minded, beware of it. Most worse thing is that the parents were the teachers in this school, think about normal parents.

Well there is no denying the fact that mothers pride/ Presidium is a money minting school only looking to make most from the parents money. Although i fully agree that CCTV should be installed in all the A/c Schools since nobody can see from outside inside a class from anywhere, but more than that the monitoring & maintainance of these camera's is equally important. Well the parents demand and anger are fully justified as they are paying a very hefty and unjustified fee structure of these schools and the safety of their wards is paramount to say the least. One would have to think twice before letting the school take kids for monthly picnic after the incident. The school should present a concrete plan to the students to say the least. The pattern / style of education is not bad in presidium but safety of child first.
