As per point No. 40 (v) of the revised FAQs posted on DoE website, draw of lots will be in the presence of either of a parent. Means presence of one parent is essential. This is what I understood.

Mr. Vohra is taking up the issue, however most of the schools will not consider absentees, because their power is snatched from them by the HC. I am of the view that few branded schools will hold draw of lots irrespective of someone's absence. 

1 more thing, this is not very valid point being both parents working. One can take leave but i also favour if all 10 schools hold draw of lots for 10 different days, then it will be very difficult for the employer to compensate your absence for 5 days each. 

Anyway, let us see.

In a transparent admission process, chits should be put in case of absentees. Last time Laxman Public school conducted without calling parents and so 40(v) states that draw should be conducted in front of either of the parents.

I feel parents presence in draw of lots should nt be mandatory and should not affect d admission of their ward. As it is very difficult to be present in all d schools. Mr. Vohra kindly address this issue also.

Even I feel presence should be optional and not mandatory. Also if draw date and time of one school coincides with another school it would be impossible to be present at both the places.

All schools have not yrt declared their lottery date. I asked them for dates but many schools said its not yet decided.How will we get to know the dates as its not practically possible to go and check notice boards of so many schools.

It is not mandatory to attend the draw, parents have been given this option to attend if they want and check for any errors/unfair system. Even if it is mandatory, someone has to suggest "how is it possible to attend draw at every school when parents have option of going to only "TWO PLACES" at a time
