West Bengal and the centre have already clashed over the declaration of observing Netaji’s birth anniversary as Parakram Diwas.

The Delhi High Court Wednesday sought response of Ministry of Education on a plea seeking contempt action against the authorities for not taking decision on extension of free education under the Right To Education (RTE) Act to children of EWS even after attaining 14 years of age in the same school.
Justice Najmi Waziri questioned the Central government as to why decision has not been taken to extend RTE Act beyond Class 8 and upto Class 12, despite court’s directions passed in 2019.
The court issued notice to Secretary of Ministry of Education seeking reply on the contempt petition filed by NGO Social Jurist and listed the matter for further hearing on March 17.
Advocates Ashok Agarwal and Kumar Utkarsh, representing the NGO, said due to inaction on the part of the Central government, private schools across the country are throwing thousand of Economically Weaker Section (EWS) students out of school every year after they pass Class 8.
“The very objective and purpose of fundamental right to education is defeated if any EWS student is not allowed to continue his studies in private school beyond Class 8 and upto Class 12,” the counsel said.
In December 2019, the High Court had asked the Centre to take a decision on the extension of free education to disadvantaged children even after attaining the age of 14 years or beyond.
The plea sought initiation of contempt proceedings against the authorities for their alleged deliberate and intentional disobedience of December 9, 2019 judgement of the High Court.
