The parents of RTE students who were selected last year have reported that private school admissions remain incomplete, and they want the government to resolve this. The state education department published new RTE admission rules for the 2026–27 academic year which will begin accepting applications on February 20.
The Sanyukt Abhibhavak Sangh which represents parents from the city is declared in a Monday statement that the RTE admission process remained unfinished from last year. Thousands of children who had secured seats through the process were still denied admission.
The parents' organisation required immediate completion of all outstanding RTE admissions for the 2025–26 academic year. The government is demanding that private schools declined admissions should face severe penalties.
The organisation required that the new RTE procedure remain on hold until all previous cases are resolved. The organisation required that all responsibility for student academic losses should be assigned to specific individuals.
The state still has yet to process 40,000 student admissions from the previous year's admission process. Parents tried to contact the block and district education department officials yet no effective solutions appeared from their efforts.
"The new process announcement makes fun of students who spent almost a year outside school, according to Abhishek Jain Bittu who acts as the spokesperson for Sanyukt Abhibhavak Sangh.
Parents accused the administration of creating two problems which resulted in disadvantaged children losing their educational rights. "The entire academic year has passed without my children receiving any education. Who is responsible for the academic year delays which resulted in educational loss?" said a parent requesting anonymity.
Parents stated that if the state government continues with the new admission procedures, they will initiate street protests this month.
