The Delhi High Court on Monday dismissed a bunch of pleas challenging the minimum age criteria of 6 years for admission in class 1 in Kendriya Vidyalayas for the academic year 2022-23. While dismissing the petitions, a single judge bench comprising of Justice Rekha Palli observed thus: "No doubt, the policy which was formulated in 2020 is yet to be implemented across schools in Delhi, despite the same having been already implemented in 21 states but once the statute i.e., the RTE Act, 2009 in itself places the KVS in a separate category coupled with the fact that all branches of KVS across the country, being run by the same management are obliged to follow the uniform criteria, the anxiousness of the KVS to introduce the age criteria of 6 years in accordance with the NEP, 2020 is well understandable." It had further told the Court that the prescription of minimum age of 6 years for Class 1 admission did not violate the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009.
