‘Private schools denying admission to commoners’

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Mar 31: Former State president and senior leader of Bahujan Samaj Party Tulsi Dass Langeh expressed serious concern over denial of admission in the private educational institutions to the children of common man, under privileged and BPL category and demanded nationalization of education so that it becomes the responsibility of Government to provide equal education to all.
In a statement issued, Langeh said that on one side in various Government educational institutions there is either acute shortage of teaching staff inspite of good strength of students or in some Government schools surplus teaching staff in the city and there is no transparency in posting/transfer policy of teaching staff.
Moreover some of the Government educational institutions are without infrastructure /buildings. In such circumstances, the children of common man /under privileged section of the society/ BPL are not in a position to continue their education. In this way 75% children of the nation are denied education.
Hence it becomes responsibility of the Government to educate the children of the nation providing equal opportunities to all irrespective of religion, cast, color and creed.
