Write a speech in 150 words on Right To Education (RTE)
Answers
Answer:
On the basis of the Act, no school, governmental or private, can detain, fail or expel any child at the elementary stage. On 7th April, 2010, the Delhi High Court gave a verdict against St. Xavier’s School, Delhi, which had to take back all the children they had declared failed and expelled from the school. Moreover, all private schools shall be required to enroll children from the weaker sections and disadvantaged communities in their class to the extent of 25% of their enrolment, by simple random selection. While no seats in this quota can be left vacant, these children will be treated at par with all the other children in the school and would be subsidised by the state at the rate of average per learner costs in the government schools.
The act also prescribes norms and standards for all schools and any school that does not fulfil these standards within 3 years will not be allowed to function. All private schools will have to apply for recognition, failing which they will be penalised up to ₹ 1 lakh and if they still continue to function, they will be liable to pay ₹ 10,000 per day as fine. In addition, the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has been mandated to monitor the implementation of this right.
It has been observed that the Hindi speaking states: Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar have been the most half-hearted when it comes to implementation of the RTE (Right To Education) Act, despite the fact that most of out-of-school children (upto 67%) are from these states. Regarding this Indian Constitution clearly says that it cannot be left to the states to provide people their rights. It is clearly not lack of funds that is a hindrance in the implementation of RTE Act, but lack of intent and political will. To effectively implement the RTE Act, the Human Resource Development Ministry, Labour Ministry, Women and Child Development Ministry, Panchayati Raj Ministry and Rural Development Ministry have to work together to reach towards this goal. School management committees should take it upon themselves to spread awareness about the Act at the community level so that people are encouraged to send their children to school.
