Bypassing govt order, 19 un-authorized schools still running in
7/15/2006 8:32:30 PM
Rajouri, July 15 : Notwithstanding government direction to close

down the un-authorized educational institutions, more than 20 such

schools were still operating in Rajouri educational zone.

Government in its order passed in March this year had directed the

Chief Education Officer Rajouri to close down 54 un-authorized

schools but it seems that the concerned authorities are by-passing

the government orders for the benefit of some vested interests.

"Almost all such schools are continuously running in the district and

these Educational shops are allegedly being run in connivance with

the concerned authorities of education department", sources in

education department disclosed to News Agency of Kashmir.

Atleast 19 Schools are running in the educational zone Rajouri, which

are un-unauthorised sources said disclosing the names of these

schools as Iqra Academy, Dassal Gujjran , Dawn Public School Rehtal,

National Institute Of Education Khewra, Indian National Academy

Danidhar, Talab-ul- aloom Gurdhan Bala, Modern Educational Trust

Gurdhan Bala, Bright Carrier Modern Institute of Education Atti, S K

Modern Institute Of Education Chapprian, Golden Public School

Fatehpur, Unique Public School Ward no Bela Rajouri, Moden Diamond

Public School Thudi, Sher-i-Kashmir Modern Public School Thudi,

International Public School Dani Dhar, St Joseph's Convent School

Rajouri, Little Flowers Pooja Rajouri, Niwaz Public School Mera,

English Medium Public School Ward no 2 Bela Rajouri , M I E Rehtal

and Model Public School Nagrota.

As per the Chief Education Officer's letter written to Zonal

Education Officer Rajouri vide no CEOR\PVT\E-1\21303-05 Dated

27-02-06, the Chief Education Officer has himself admitted that 19

Private Schools are running illegally in education zone Rajouri. In

view of these observations, he had passed the directions for the

closure of such Schools.

However, the continuation of this shady business clearly indicates

the criminal and corrupt nexus of education authorities with the

administration of these unauthorised institutions.

Sources said some of such blacklisted schools were permitted only up

to 1st and 2nd primary classes but instead they have been running 8th

and 9th classes and this became possible due to the criminal silence

of the concerned education authorities.

Moreover bearing few, almost all these schools are lacking the

required infrastructure of any educational institution. An

investigation conducted by this correspondent revealed that none of

these schools have some feet space for the sports facilities. Not

only were the sports facilities, even majority of them running the

High Schools from the shops along the road sides. Reacting over the

legal status of these Schools, scholars of the area have expressed

their surprise over the permissions given to these Schools with out

checking the required infrastructure for running a school.

Chief Education Officer Rajouri could not be contacted for his

official version.
