Live Law  

A Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice P Sathasivam and also comprising Justice Ranjan Gogoi and Justice MY Eqbal, issued notice to the Centre, all states and Union Territories directing it to reply on a petition filed by an organization National Coalition for Education which alleged that schools across the country violated Right to Education Act. The petition which alleged that there was lack of resources and failure to implement provisions of the RTE Act leading to a major decline in education performance, sought for its proper implementation.The PIL, which has been moved by the NGO national convener Rama Kant Rai, has sought nine directions covering different areas to comply with the provisions of the Right to Education Act. The petition further sought for a direction that all deficient schools be upgraded by the states and Union Territories with suitable physical infrastructure so as to be in compliance with the RTE Act within six months. The petition also said the states and Union Territories should reveal the number of students admitted under the Economically Weaker Section quota in the state in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
