The Hindu
The Delhi High Court on Wednesday asked the Central government to respond to a contempt petition against the authorities for not taking decision on extension of free education under the Right To Education (RTE) Act to children of Economically Weaker Section (EWS) beyond Class 8 and up to Class 12 in school.
Justice Najmi Waziri questioned the Ministry of Education as to why decision has not been taken to extend the RTE Act, despite court’s directions passed in 2019.
