| Ensure uniform implementation of NEP 2020: High Court to Govt | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, July 26: A division bench of Jammu & Kashmir High court comprising Chief Justice Pankaj Mithal and Justice Javed Iqbal Wani has disposed of a PIL with the expectation that the government shall ensure uniform implementation of the above policy by all private schools. The PIL has sought implementation of National Education Policy 2020.
The PIL filed by one Kaiser Ahmed Bhat sought directions to be issued to the official respondents to evolve policy of admissions in private schools which should be fair and just for the economic and social status of the society. The ASGI appearing for the Union of India submitted that there is NEP 2020, already in place issued by the Government of India and it takes care of all matters relating to admissions in private schools and, as such, no further policy is required to be formulated.
The petitioner said the policy has been framed by the Government but still the private schools are behaving in an arbitrary and illegal manner. It has been pointed out that the aforesaid policy has not been implemented or enforced. Advocate Hakim Suhail Ishtiaq, appearing for respondent 7 submitted that some of the private schools have adopted the policy but others have to follow it.
The DB observed that the issue of illegal behaviour of some of the schools is distinct and unconnected with the subject matter of the PIL which can be raised independently by the persons aggrieved and disposed of the PIL with the expectation that the respondent-government shall ensure uniform implementation of the above policy by all private schools. |
