Summary:
The National Progressive Schools’ Conference, an association of over 1,000 private schools in Delhi, has a slightly different view. In July, a minor was raped in a private school cab in West Delhi by the driver. The L-G also directed the Delhi police to waive verification charges for private schools to incentivise the process. While angry protests escalated and shock and outrage spread, a drunk peon raped a 5-year-old student the very next day — this time at a private school in Delhi. A list of actions to be taken has been circulated in all schools, private or government, and officials have been asked to ensure immediate compliance,” says a senior police officer..
