140 parents fake poverty to misuse RTE benefits, schools take action

The Ahmedabad DEO cancelled 140 RTE admissions after parents faked income documents to claim free private education for their children.

Business News

A total of 140 parents in Ahmedabad were found using fake income certificates to secure free private education for their children under the Right to Education (RTE) scheme. The District Education Officer (DEO) swiftly cancelled the admissions, restoring the rights of deserving families.

The RTE scheme in Gujarat offers free education in private schools for children from poor and middle-income families, covering Classes 1 to 8. Eligibility hinges on an annual parental income cap of Rs 1.5 lakh.

During verification, it was revealed that these parents had annual incomes far exceeding Rs 1.5 lakh. Schools like Udgam, Jaber, RP Vasani, Global International, and Calorex’s KN Patel discovered the discrepancies after cross-checking income documents, including IT returns.

When confronted, some parents claimed inflated returns were filed to ease loan approval, while others blatantly admitted to having higher incomes.

The DEO’s actions have been widely praised for protecting RTE’s integrity. However, this incident highlights the need for stricter scrutiny of income certificates during admissions
