Nursery Admissions: Delhi HC Declines Quashing Point System

Posted on Dec 10, 2014 in

The Delhi High Court today refused to grant interim stay on its single judge verdict quashing the point-system for nursery admission brought in by  the Lieutenant Governor for private unaided schools here.

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court today refused to grant interim stay on its single judge verdict quashing the point-system for nursery admission brought in by  the Lieutenant Governor for private unaided schools here.

A bench of Chief Justice G Rohini and Justice R S Endlaw dismissed the application for interim stay moved by the education department of Delhi government, saying it will hear the main appeal on merit on January 15, 2015, the next date of hearing.

"The application is dismissed," the bench said.

The court's order came on a plea moved by senior advocate P P Malhotra, appearing for the Delhi government's Directorate of Education (DoE), contending that "there cannot be any discrimination or question of autonomy in the matter of admitting children around three years of age in nursery".

The single judge had passed the order on November 28 while disposing of two petitions by a committee and a forum representing the private schools which had challenged the LG's December 18, 2013 and December 27, 2013 notifications by which the points system was introduced.

The application by the DoE had contended that the single judge order was "totally wrong", "erroneous" and "against the law" and did not appreciate the correct legal position and scheme of Article 21 (Protection of Life and Personal Liberty) and Article 21-A (Right to Education) of the Constitution.

"The judge erred to hold that if parents are given freedom to choose school, the good schools would attract more students and would expand and not-so-good schools would lose students," the petition had said.

"The judge has failed to consider that education is a paramount consideration for the welfare of the society and in this, there are several participants...

"Quash and set aside the impugned judgement dated November 28 with all consequential benefits and reliefs," the government had pleaded to the court

Catholic schools to give forms from January 1

NEW DELHI: The Catholic schools of Delhi are "going ahead with nursery admissions." Instead of waiting for the outcome of the court case on nursery guidelines, the Delhi Catholic Schools Association announced the decision at its monthly meeting on Monday.

"We have left the dates to each institution but since December is a very busy month for us-because of Christmas-most of us are likely to start distributing forms from January 1," says Sister Nirmalini, principal Carmel Convent and a member of the association. She adds, "If a common schedule comes, we will follow that-like we did last year-but for now, this is the decision. We aren't waiting for the court case."

School authorities discussed the criteria as well and any changes from last year are unlikely. "The Christian community will be given preference, then neighbourhood or distance, alumni and sibling," says Sister Nirmalini. Co-education schools are likely to allot points for "girl child" as well.

The association has over 30 schools that can accommodate anywhere between 100 to over 350 students each. The minority institutions had been covered by the December 2013 nursery guidelines and had challenged them and won a stay. These schools had objected to both the fixing of criteria and points allotted to them as well as the inclusion of a 20% free quota for EWS students in schools on government land.

This judgement is totally against of parents and more confusing situations are created now, Can we get update when can we get the admission started for 2014-15 session. Do we need to wait till 15 Jan.

I would like to share my opinion:

1. Max points for distance, with extra merit to residence in close vicinity (I live in east delhi, with ahlcon international being the only good option)

2. Points for alumni and first born child to be same

3. Points for sibling

4. Points for girl child, BIG YES!!!!!!!!!!!

5. Children with special needs - extra points (provided that the child is fit for inclusion into mainstream)

6. All schools should have common calender, so that parents are free to choose and don't lose money in booking seats

7. Management quota seats limited to 10%

8. MOST IMPORTANT: Draw of lots to take place in presence of parents

Schools not following the guidelines (like taking interview of child or parents) should be dealt with strongly

1. Distance criteria  may be fixed with bigger bands to avoid confusion like 0-5 km, 5-10 km etc. Maks in next slab should not be less than 80% of previous slab, like 50 40 32 etc.

2. Distance should clearly be aerial distance to avoid any confusion.

3. Sibling should get at least 50% of highest weightage in distance criteria i.e. 25 in case max weightage in distance is 50.

My question: Why couldn't this case be given to the vacation bench of the Delhi HC? Doesn't the judiciary system know what chaos was created last year, with schools admitting students and suddenly stay on the process? If they know, then why do they want to repeat the same this year. They shall hear the appeal on Jan 15 but take another month to give a decision, leading to delay in the process and harassment of parents and kids alike.

It appears that the pvt school lobby has bribed the judiciary also to act in their favor.

I strongly agree with you and I also think that this will done in near future and creates more confusion again as well as the pvt. school again bribed the judiciary and get their favour.  This is the bitter truth which we will have to face.  In this time of election in Delhi, why shouldn't any political party take action in this regard? They are all are hand-in-glove to each other.

Neither DoE is coming up with any fixed schedule nor HC is allowing a stay. It will definately delay the process if the wait is until 15 Jan 2015 i.e. the schedule for HC double bench hearing. Parents have no clue about which direction to follow ... hhmm !!! Is there some conclusion to this awkward situation and what is the assurity that there will be no conflicting situations at the end of everything ? Are the private unaided schools going to come up with some dates ?
