Among the many things that the minor rape survivor, whose school has been accused of denying her admission to Class XI as it would bring the institution a “bad name”, had to face was her classmates’ unwillingness to share a seat with her, said sources in the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW).
The commission issued a notice seeking explanation from the Directorate of Education (DoE) after her parents approached the DCW. A reply to the notice is awaited.
‘Stopped talking to her’
It’s learnt that even before she was allegedly asked by the private school to stop coming to class, her fellow students stopped talking to her and refused to sit with her.
While the parents told the commission that the school had forced the children to adopt the stance, the DCW source didn’t rule out the possibility of the students behaving in a certain way on their own after discovering that she had been raped.
Last November, the girl, who was in Class X in the same school, was allegedly kidnapped, raped and thrown out of a moving car.
