‘Amendments a mere eyewash’

June 21, 2015 12:00 am | Updated 05:34 am IST - New Delhi:

Terming Delhi government’s proposed amendments to the Education Act as a “mere eyewash”, the BJP said steps being planned by the Arvind Kejriwal dispensation to curb exploitation of parents by schools charging hefty fees are of “no use”.

The BJP demanded that instead of introducing complaint redressal forum for parents through amendments, a law should be brought to enable the government regulate fees. “The draft amendments proposed by government is mere eyewash. The way parents are being looted, exploited, is of serious concern. The government has failed to address the issue over the past four months and now it is trying to do a face-saving act. — PTI
