Subject: Corruption in Education
To: palashbiswaskl@gmail.com


Several changes have been initiated in the Education sector in India recently.
 
The government of India has introduced a new law in Parliament which prohibits the charging of capitation fee by an educational institution, that covers schools, medical, engineering and other technical colleges.
 
The shortage of seats available for students has lead to a practice of the Management of educational institutions demanding lakhs of rupees (in cash) over and above the presecribed fees.
 
Students with even 98% marks are unable to secure seats and often their parents feel there is no option but to pay such bribes. The number of official complaints filed with the government is low, though the media (especially television media) has conducted several sting operations exposing institutions demanding cash for seats in schools and colleges.
 
Complaining about corruption in the education sector and sharing such information in the public domain can have many benefits:
- streamlining of admission procedure to eliminate discretionary power for allotment of seats
- improvement of examination system, admission criteria, fees charged, etc.
- boost to second-tier institutions that do not take bribes
- etc.
 
1. Please send us brief examples from your own experiences, with details such as of Location of Educational Institution, Subject / Discipline, Management quota charges exluding fees. We will compile information received for authorities to take action on.
 
2. You may also fill the Corruption ROKO form on Karmayog at www.karmayog.org/roko/rokoform/ .
 
3. What are your suggestions to students and parents?
 
 
Regards,
 
Vinay
