Govt: Minority schools too in EWS ambitTIMES NEWS NETWORKDecember 5 2012New Delhi: The Delhi government on Tuesday informed the Delhi High Court that all schools private, public and even minority which have been allotted government land must provide reservation in all classes for students belonging to Economically Weaker Sections (EWS).    Filing an affidavit before the bench of justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Vipin Sanghi, the Delhi government said, This obligation (20 percent quota for EWS students) shall be applicable to all schools even if they are a school run by minority community as the obligation flows from the provisions of the lease deed/land allotment letter.    To ensure the implementation of the policy decision, modification of January 7, 2011 notification is under process, the government also said. Accepting the government affidavit, the bench disposed of a plea filed by some parents through counsel Ashok Agarwal and Khagesh Jha challenging the Delhi government's January 2011 notification giving reservation to EWS students only up to Class I.
