Answer given by the minister


MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

(a) to (c): Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is an examination conducting body
which affiliates schools for the purpose of certification of students at the end of Class X and
Class XII courses on fulfilment of norms prescribed in the Examination and Affiliation Bye-
Laws of the Board. The schools affiliated with CBSE are recognised by the respective State
Governments under the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act, 2009.
However, the Board has issued a circular No. 07/2018 dated 31.05.2018 regarding Adherence to
provisions of RTE Act, 2009 and Affiliation Bye-Laws of the Board.

? The schools are required to have valid copy of Recognition certificate from the concerned
State/ UT government as stipulated in Section 18(1) of RTE Act, 2009.

? The school shall ensure that provisions of the RTE Act, 2009 and State Education Acts
are complied with meticulously.

Education is in the Concurrent List and majority of the schools are under the administrative
control of the States and UTs. Therefore, the implementation of RTE Act in all schools including
those which are affiliated with CBSE comes under the purview of the concerned State and UT
Government.

(d): The detail of private schools of North East region and Uttar Pradesh against whom enquiry
has been initiated regarding financial or other irregularities by CBSE is as follows:
