Abstract:

The issue of RTE implementation under international human rights law is firmly rooted in practically every corner of the globe, especially in emerging and underdeveloped countries. Due to the nature of soft law, imprecise terminology, and fragmentation within provisions of international and regional legal instruments, the issue has several facets, ranging from discrimination to the question of free and compulsory quality education for all. In the case of India Article 21(A) was enacted in 2002 as part of the 86th Amendment Act. It included primary education in the right to freedom, stating tha

Abstract:

The year 2009 is a land mark year in the history of elementary education, as the Government finally managed to pass the 86th amendment to the constitution that made Right to Education (RTE) a fundamental right. The title of the RTE Act incorporates the words “free and compulsory". &bdquo;Free education" means that no child, other than a child who has been admitted by his or her parents to a school which is not supported by the appropriate Government, shall be liable to pay any kind of fee or charges or expenses which may prevent him or her from pursuing and completing elementary educatio

Abstract:

Abstract While the broader ambition of the Indian government’s Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act (2009) has been lauded, scholars have expressed reservations with the universal education measure. One area that has not been adequately addressed within these debates is the instructional medium. While RTE (2009) recognizes children who are “disadvantaged” as linguistic minorities, and stipulates that the “medium of instruction shall, as far as practicable, be in child’s mother tongue”, it offers little further direction. India is home to more than 1,652 languages, but o

The Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009, and the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020, are two significant reforms in India's education sector.

Abstract:

Legislation is one of the most important tools for empowering children. Recent years have seen several key developments in the law, policy, and practice related to child rights. Significantly, with the adoption of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989, a rights-based approach has acquired prominence in the child rights discourse across the world. The book analyses the laws in the light of court judgments and policy initiatives taken in India. It also examines the interventions and strategies employed by non-governmental organizations in recommending legislative refor

This chapter looks at the Indian Supreme Court's exemption of minority schools from the requirements of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act 2009 (RTE Act). It argues that the consequences of the minority school exemptions from the RTE Act by the Supreme Court have led to the unfortunate result of a large number of private schools falsely appealing for minority status. This is made possible by the ambiguous definition of what constitutes a minority institution and also the lack of clarity as to who is the authority that would declare schools to be minority schools.

Abstract:

This chapter assesses India’s education system. Making adequate provision for education, enabling people to pursue better economic opportunities and lead a dignified life, widening their social horizons, and nurturing their sense of worldly wonder, are among the most basic responsibilities of any democracy. India’s dismal and inequal education system sharply contrasts with the other big economies of Asia. Particularly telling is the way the goal of providing ‘free and compulsory education for all children’ within ten years of the adoption of the 1949 Constitution took fifty-two years to become
