Referring to certain statistics, the court said, “not only are our public institutions unable to cater to CWSN because of lack of adequate infrastructure, but moreover, there remains incoherence in the reporting itself.”
It said that as per the figures given by the state, “government owned or aided institutions in Delhi do not - as of this moment - have sufficient capacity by themselves to cater to CWSN.”
“Quite to the contrary, a closer reading of statistics provided by the GNCT of Delhi indicates that there are more CWSN admitted than the existing capacity,” the court said in its verdict.
It also observed that “the obligation cast upon the Government, along with a concomitant right of all CWSN, to have a right to education at the entry level, is currently a hollow promise.”
