School fined Rs 50, 000 for Expelling Student
New Delhi: Concerned over certain public schools forcing non – performing students to leave midway, a consumer forum has imposed Rs. 50, 000 as fine on Delhi Public School (DPS), Faridabad, for expelling a student, who fared badly in exams.
“It is a sorry state of affairs that schools like DPS in their anxiety to show good academic results are ready to go to any extent to expel a student in the mid – session of the 12th standard,” said G.D. Dhanuka, president of South – West District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum. Holding the school guilty of “unfair trade practice”, the forum directed its administration to pay within a month the amount as compensation to Ritwik Puri, who was expelled after the semester examination of class XII.
