Srinagar, Dec 24: The Directorate of Education, Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi, has issued stringent directives to all government, government-aided, and unaided recognized private schools. The guidelines emphasize strict admission procedures and thorough verification of students’ documentation to prevent the enrollment of illegal Bangladeshi migrants.
The Directorate highlighted that each year, several lakh students apply for admission to government schools. In an effort to enhance convenience for students and their parents/guardians, as well as promote transparency, the Directorate has worked towards streamlining the admission process, making it more accessible and user-friendly.
However, the latest order stresses the need for schools to implement rigorous procedures and scrutinize documents to prevent unauthorized enrollment, particularly targeting illegal Bangladeshi migrants. The directive mandates that all heads of government, government-aided, and recognized private schools must ensure that a thorough and careful process is followed when admitting migrant children. This includes proper submission, verification, and handling of all necessary documentation.
Additionally, the Directorate has instructed the District and Zone Education Departments (DDE) to submit weekly reports on such cases to the School Branch at DoE Headquarters.
