அரசு ஊழியர்கள் கட்டாயம் தன் பிள்ளைகளை அரசு பள்ளியிலதான் படிக்கவைக்கவேண்டும் அலகாபாத் உயர்நீதி மன்றம்

The Allahabad high court on Tuesday took a serious note of the pathetic condition of primary schools in the state and directed the chief secretary to ensure that children/wards of government officials/servants, those serving in the local bodies, representatives of people and judiciary,etc., send their wards to these schools.

"Only then would they be serious enough to look into the requirements ofthese schools and ensure that they are run in good condition," the court observed.
Hearing a slew of writ petitions filed by Umesh Kumar Singh and several others, Justice Sudhir Agarwal directedthe chief secretary to take steps within six months so as to make the aforesaiddirections effective from the next academic session of primary schools.The court also directed him to submit acompliance report immediately after the lapse of six months.The issue involved in the writ petitions was with regard to appointment of assistant teachers in state's primary schools.
During the course of hearing, the court noticed the deplorable condition of these schools and observed that although they are catering to the needsof 90% population of children, their condition could be described as"shabby."The court further observed that as officials responsible for running these primary schools are treating them in a shabby manner, these schools have given rise to multiple litigations.
