Transfer points for nursery admissions cancelled
With the Lieutenant-Governor assuring the Delhi High Court on Wednesday that nursery admission guidelines will no longer have the additional “five points” allotted to children with a transfer certificate from out of the State – some parents and activists who had alleged that the provision was being misused, had reason to celebrate while those falling in the genuine transfer case category were worried at being put to a disadvantage.
“It is big victory for residents of Delhi who are living here for the past 30-40 years and no one liked the idea from the beginning,” said Sumit Vohra of admissionsnursery.com whose information website had conducted a survey which said that 98 per cent of parents were unhappy with the NCR transfer points.
“While alumni points could be claimed in maximum two schools, transfer cases got additional five points in all schools. This excluded children with 70 points from any consideration in many good schools. Some schools asked for proof of residence up to one year old. In such conditions they may get the advantage of transfer. But beyond that it makes no sense,” said a parent, Tanmay Pandya, while taking the survey.
Another parent Deepak Kalkot said that transfer point were like some loophole where it was very easy for parents to fudge a company's letter head to show a transfer.
As soon as news of the development spread, parents were also worried about whether they would be required to apply in all the schools again. They were also wondering where the “five” points would be allotted next. According to the guidelines released by the Lieutenant-Governor, the admissions are done on a 100-point basis.
Parents had alleged that some of the schools were allowing children from Noida and Gurgaon to be eligible for inter-State transfer for which five points were given. This was to the severe disadvantage of children in Delhi since many of the schools measure distance through the aerial method through which some residential areas in Noida and Gurgaon also get included. Therefore, a child having a transfer certificate from these places would have gotten five points in addition to the 70 points accorded to neighbourhood.
Another manner in which the points were being abused was when parents who worked in any of these satellite towns and commuted to Delhi where they lived, managed a transfer certificate from their workplace and used it for the additional five points.

A Big Thank you to Mr. Vohra and the AN team for getting these transfer points scrapped.
Now the focus should be to see that no new anomaly is created and the DOLs should be held in a transparent and fair manner wherein parents should be allowed to attend, as many schools were not willing and wanted to simply display the list on the due date.

Even for the Alumni points I think it should be done away with. Sibling makes sense as parents having 2 or more kids would want and is practically better to have all kids in the same school.
I think and suggest that the point system can be :
Vicinity and Sibling : 80 and 20. No Transfer no Alumni : Or it can just be 70 and 30 so that except for those having siblings rest all are at PAR.
For the child with special needs they can have a 2% (or whatever justified) quota fixed.

Criteria should be as
0-3 km - 70
3.1 - 6 km - 50
6.1 - 8 -30
Sibling - 20
Alumni -5
Only then a nereby student can get admission to his neighborhood school. example ki 2 students (Ram & shyam ) ne form do school ke liye form bhare Ram ka Apeejay school paas hain aur Shyam ka DPS, lekin Ram ka to aa gaya DPS me aur Shyam ka aa gaya Apeejay me to uska bhi solution aise ho jayega agar distance ke bhi point ho to
