New Delhi : The Delhi High Court has clarified that Article 21A of the Constitution, which guarantees free and compulsory education for children up to the age of fourteen, does not confer the right for a child to be educated in a specific school of their choice. Justice C Hari Shankar made this observation while addressing a case involving a 7-year-old girl seeking admission as an economically weaker section (EWS) student in Class II for the academic session 2023-24.
The girl's mother had filed a plea against a school for refusing admission despite her daughter being shortlisted for admission in Class I for the previous academic session through a computerized draw of lots conducted by the Directorate of Education (DoE).
The court noted that the girl had not applied for admission as an EWS student for Class II for the relevant academic year, and without such an application, she had no enforceable right to seek admission in that year to any particular school. The court emphasized that each academic year constitutes a fresh session, and the right to admission as an EWS candidate does not automatically carry forward to the next academic year without the necessary application and draw of lots.
While rejecting the prayer for admission to Class II, the court directed the DoE to ensure that the girl is granted admission as an EWS student in Class II in another school.
