Dear Madam/ Sir


Shri Harish Chand r/o Jg 2/524 Vikaspuri, New Delhi (M-9311829107) has complained to me that his daughter Jaya Budhiraja has been studying in Banasthali Public School, G Block, Vikaspuri, New Delhi-18 since 2004-05 under EWS category and presently she has appeared in class VIII examinations in the academic session 2010-11 and despite results been declared on 22/03/2011, the Report Card has not given to her daughter Jaya. The reason is: the school is illegally asking the parents to pay a sum of Rs. 4,500/- to wards fees. Since the parents have refused it meet the said illegal demand of the school, the school has denied Report Card to the student. A complaint by the parent in attached hereto.

It is a serious matter. The action of the school management is not only contrary to the provisions of Delhi School Education Act, 1973 but also tantamount to contempt of Hon’ble Delhi High Court.

Kindly take immediate action in this matter directing the school to forthwith handover the Report Card Jaya Budhiraja without insisting for payment of any money.

With regard

Sir, you are doing yeoman service to the Cause of Social Justice and Child Rights. You are doing your best. Some Schools are still exploiting Parents and Students, by withholding Result of XI Std. and forcing the students and parents to either repeat the same Class (XI) or take TC and go to other School. Sir, it is another kind of exploitation, please pay your kind attention towards this issue, because many Parents and Students are suffering silently as there is no other way for them because no other School is ready to give admission in XII Std. to these students and if the agree then they demand Rs.2,00,000 to Rs.3,00,000, that to as a external student. Now where shall these students go. Please take up this issue URGENTLY, otherwise many students and parents will suffer loss of either 1 year or they will be forced to pay Rs.2,00,000 to Rs.3,00,000. These Schools know that these Students can not go to any other regular school because of New System of CBSE for Registration Number of particular student by which student can appear in XII Exams. through that School only. Sir, Please do some thing about this. Regards.
