Patiala, March 24 - It seems that parents of students will have to bear the financial cost of the "setting" of a large number of schools and booksellers during the new academic session of 2024-25. As there are few days left for the commencement of this session but till now only 9 schools of the city have uploaded the list of books on their school notice board as well as uploaded on the website while most of the schools have failed to do so. According to the information received, these schools include Our Lady of Fatima School, St. Peter's Academy, Ryan International School, Sri Aurobindo International School, Buddha Dal Public School, DAV Public School, Modern Senior Secondary School, YPS School and Blossom Senior Secondary School. are included In February itself, the education department had issued a letter to all the private, small and large schools of the district and ordered them to post the school fee structure, book list, uniform sample and vendor list for 2024-25 on the notice board of the school. or uploaded on the school website but these schools did not pay attention to this order. The Parents' Association says that every year parents of students buy books worth crores of rupees, but many private schools in the city have "huge commission arrangements" with three-four book sellers and are asked to buy books only from these sellers. Last year, the government had given instructions to schools not to force parents to buy books or uniforms from a shop, but schools in Patiala did not follow these instructions. Parents' anger towards these schools is also increasing. A complaint has also been lodged with the district education department against three private schools of the underprivileged. Deputy Education Officer of the district Ravinderpal Sharma says that if the parents have any complaints related to the schools, they can file a complaint with the Education Department, which will be acted upon.
