The Hindu
Cites “significant increase” in the total number of students across the 29 schools
The South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC), on Thursday, decided to merge 29 of its schools – which operate in morning and evening shifts – into morning shift schools and transform them into co-education institutions.
“With the merger, both girls and boys will study together. The Delhi High Court, in its order in 2011, emphasised on running schools in the morning shift, considering that the schools operating in evening shift are not suitable for the students,” the civic body, in a press note, stated.
Previously, the civic body had stated that enrolment of students had increased significantly, with close to 93,000 students having joined the current session.
