During the course of hearing, the court noticed the deplorable condition of these schools and observed that although they are catering to the needs of 90% population of children, their condition could be described as "shabby."

 

Hearing a slew of writ petitions filed by Umesh Kumar Singh and several others, Justice Sudhir Agarwal directed the chief secretary to take steps within six months so as to make the aforesaid directions effective from the next academic session of primary schools.

With all respect to Hon'ble High Court, I don't understand how the govt,. employees can be discriminated in matters like educating children.  Morever, how you will define neta. All Neta are not public servants. Many workonly in organization and are not elected. Even the elected ones are for fixed period of five years. It is okay to seek improvement of govt. schools but it is too much to compel anyone to sendhis children to govt. school only.  There may be other issue. A Sikh employee may like to send his children to a Kalsa school instead of govt. school. Here is involved religion as well.

The word Netas is used by the media. And it is not uncommon to see the word " NETA' in the public. And the other things you mentioned perhaps will be given clarity in the final report to be submitted to the Allahabad High court,

 

The condition of government schools is due to policies of government itself. In many states, government teachers are selected through various examinations and those who perform best are selected. In Rajasthan RPSC conducts exams for selecting teachers and those who clears the exam are only selected. So there are qualified teachers also in these government schools, but the reason of worst condition of these schools is because in some places where there is good strength of students there are less teachers and where there are less students in those schools there are more than required teachers. And if there is balance in student teacher ratio, most teacher got transferred due to political or other reason.

Some of the government schools which are not influenced by politicians and have appropriate student - teacher ratio are performing well, giving better results than private schools.

There is a necessity of  a change for the functioning of the  government schools in an acceptable way so that the benefits of education can be reaped by the people. Netas howl at the top of their voices to improve the standards in the government schools and send their wards to the private schools. Why ?. It's the double talk of these Politicians and self - styled  Netas.

And with a view to stop this dual standards, the court has taken this decision.

 

I feel that it is an impulsive ruling by the court so that the conditions of the government schools get improved at least after the public servants children are forced to study there ...Like roads around ministers homes schools to may see better days if these people are compelled to use government schools..


Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead !!!

The very aim of the court is to make realize the politicians to see the dreary conditions existing in the Government schools. unless these politicians who send their children to the private corporate educational institutes have  PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, the condition of the government schools will not improve.

 

Kaamwalis in Mumbai are sending their children to expensive English medium private schools  government organisations cannot excel because there is security of service and no personal stake. It is better that public schools are slowly allowed to die. Te vacuum will be filled by private schools and competition will ensure reasonably good education.

Allowing the public schools to die slowly will solve the problem.? As it is the fees of private schools are touching the stars. One thing can be done. The government should prescribe a  charge which is within the reach of the commoner. If the schools fail to comply with the Government prescribed fees structure, they should be de- recognized.

 

Then like government hospitals let them run and accept the fact that quality will not be there. Something is better than nothing. Conditional grants have no meaning. Fudging of data is well known ability of Indian bureaucracy.

But something has to be done. It is the duty of the government to provide education to all.
