Congress once again gheraoed district education officer (DEO) on Tuesday for not taking action against private schools which are charging inordinate fees.
“The Congress is continuously raising this issue for the past four months and has submitted several memorandums to responsible authorities but it seems the administration is refraining from taking action against the private schools on pressure of School Education Minister,” alleged DCC Raipur Urban president Inderchand Dhariwal.
The Congmen staged dharna before the DEO and demanded instant action against the private schools for flouting section 13(2) of Right to Education (RTE) Act and imposing several additional fees on the students apart from the tuition fees.
“The DEO buckled down under our pressure and shot notices to about 50 private schools seeking explanation from them in 15 days. She assured us to take punitive action against all the 50 schools besides imposing fine on them in first week of September 2012,” Dhariwal informed.
The Congmen warned the DEO of gheraoing her again if action against private schools would be taken by September 7.
The Congmen who gheraoed DEO on Tuesday were Dr Niranjan Haritwal, Madan Lal Taleda, Kanhaiyya Agrawal, Raju Ghanshyam Tiwari, Mamta Rai, Yogesh Tiwari, Dinesh Tiwari, Nitin Thakur, Sunil Bazari, Harish Tiwari, Kishan Bazari, etc.
