Education is very important for overall development of any student. There are no extra points for guessing that academic infrastructure in private schools is far better than government institutes. But these private schools are too expensive for people belonging to finically weaker sections. But the state as well as the central government wants to offer equal opportunities for all students. Thus, the Right to Education Act was formed and implemented. Under this scheme, Madhya Pradesh state government is inviting applications for 2018 – 2019 academic years.

Main advantage

The main aim of the central government, behind the implementation of RTE act was to offer an opportunity to people from all financial backgrounds for attaining best education for their children. Poor and people belonging to weaker financial sections cannot afford the cost of sending their wards to private schools. Thus, RTE ensured 25% seat reservation in private schools as well, to accommodate students from poor families. These selected candidates need not pay any fee as it will be taken care of by the state government.

With the implementation of the RTE scheme, even poor families can send their children to reputed private schools. It ensures that these children get best education. The infrastructure in private schools is better that that available in government schools. Thanks to this scheme, there will be no discrimination on the basis of financial background, in academic matters.
